While other teams were making a huge splash as Major League Baseball’s trading deadline drew near, the Chicago White Sox decided to go ahead and jump in the trade pool themselves. The Sox decided to fill an important need. This need had been beckoning since earlier in the season when second baseman Nick Madrigal went out with an injury.
The White Sox took their need there and turned it into something valuable when they traded for Cesar Hernandez this past Thursday. Hernandez, formerly of the Cleveland Indians, comes over from one of the White Sox biggest rivals.
