Chicago White Sox pull off pitching trade with Red Sox
The Chicago White Sox and general manager Chris Getz have had a great offseason, which culminated in the team signing Japanese slugger Munetaka Murakami to a two-year ($34 million) deal.

Also adding reliever Seranthony Dominguez (two years, $20 million) to be their closer, the White Sox still needed to add more depth to their starting rotation after ranking dead last in innings pitched by their starters (758.2). With there being a need for another starter, Getz decided to go out and make a trade with ESPN’s Jeff Passan reporting the White Sox are acquiring right-hander Jordan Hicks and right-handed pitching prospect David Sandlin from the Boston Red Sox.

According to Red Sox beat writer Chris Cotillo, the White Sox are sending their No. 21 prospect, right-hander Gage Ziehl, to the Red Sox. Along with Hicks and Sandlin, the Red Sox are sending $8 million to the White Sox to help pay for Hicks’ $24 million remaining salary, according to The Athletic’s Will Sammon.
Sandlin, 24, had a 9-6 record with a 4.50 ERA in 32 games (14 starts) last season between Double and Triple-A.

Jordan Hicks offers more depth for the Chicago White Sox in their starting rotation
Hicks struggled to put together another quality season as a starter, posting a career-worst 2-7 record with a 6.95 ERA in 34 games (nine starts) between the Red Sox and San Francisco Giants. Joining a rotation that saw rookie right-hander Shane Smith be the team’s lone All-Star, a change of scenery, and lower expectations could help Hicks revamp his career.
Having as much depth as the White Sox do, Hicks could wind up being a valuable weapon for manager Will Venable out of the bullpen, if Dominguez can’t get the job done as the team’s closer. Hicks has 35 career saves under his belt.
