The Chicago White Sox could give up two young guys for some outfield help this year.

The New York Yankees are always looking for arms. They spend a lot of money on players year in and year out so a cheaper player that can help might be something they are interested in. Jace Fry could absolutely be that for them. He is a middle reliever that has tremendous upside. To be honest, seeing the White Sox trade him would be hard but they have other players in the bullpen that can replace his service.

The bullpen is a little crowded in Chicago too so it could benefit him on a personal level. The Yankees would probably give him a good amount of playing time if they acquired him. Taking relievers from the White Sox has worked out well for them in the past.

Bailey Horn is the White Sox number 30 prospect. That isn’t something to freak out about but the Yankees have seen players like him work out in the past. He is a left-handed pitcher that was just drafted in the fifth round of the 2020 MLB Draft so he is as raw as a prospect can be right now. Getting a decent replacement for Jimenez is worth a reliever and a fifth-round top-30 prospect.
