The White Sox added much-needed starting rotation help Tuesday by acquiring Ivan Nova from the Pirates.
A source confirmed the trade, which is subject to medical reports. Ken Rosenthal of The Athletic first reported the trade. The players the Sox traded away have not yet been named.
Nova, 31, has made 26 starts or more in five seasons since 2011. Nova made 29 starts and threw 161 innings for the Pirates last season, posting a 4.19 ERA.
The Sox are seeking one more starter to join Reynaldo Lopez, Lucas Giolito and Carlos Rodon.
