White Sox do not send any players / picks in return
White Sox accept, first of hopefully many trades to come between the two franchises. It only took 103 messages to come to an agreement on this one! As Curtis pointed out to me when I first took over, the White Sox franchise is a long way off competing and we dont have that many tradeable assets but what we lack in talent we make up for in cap space. I want to get some solid talent into the farm that aren't a million miles away from the Show whilst retaining what young talent I do have. For the immediate future the cap hits are a necessary evil but will allow us to bring some prospects on cheap contracts into the franchise. We hope that the veterans in the deal may have a some trade value if they can ever have a hot streak in the future.

+15 White Sox
I like the way Mark is using his salary cap room to build his farm. He’s getting 3 pretty decent prospects and two solid picks here all for taking on 3 players at half their salary. He’s also sneakily putting together a full MLB roster from the ruins of a team he was left. He’s not going to win anything this year, but he has dug himself out of the basement. A pretty good day one of trades.
