Trade One

The Chicago White Sox have some special talent on their roster and in the minors. Danny Mendick went into the season as a top-20 prospect for them but he has come in and been awesome for them. It is hard to see him in the starting lineup when the team is fully healthy years down the line so maybe trading him while he has good value is a good idea. Right now, he is looking like he could be a good utility player for a while.

Jonathan Stiever is a 23-year-old right-handed pitcher. On MLB dot com, he is projected to reach the Major Leagues in 2021. You never know how accurate that is going to end up being but it is exciting for whoever has him by the time he reaches the big leagues. If it were the Brewers. he would be able to eventually slot in and try to help them win.

The White Sox and Brewers have made deals in the past and the two organizations have had a lot in common over the past few years. If they were able to pull off a big trade like this, the White Sox would really be adding a quality closer/reliever for a price that they should be willing to pay.
