The Chicago White Sox could make a few more moves before the deadline on Monday. There are a lot of good players that they have that they could trade away.
One of them is Dylan Cease. We still don't know for sure if they have opened that door for other teams to consider but there are reports that they might have.
Cease is an elite pitcher that is going to get interest from everyone that is considered a pitching buyer before Tuesday afternoon.
One of those teams is the Baltimore Orioles. Cease would look great playing for them at this point and he'd be on a winning team. One of these trade packages could get it done:
Trade One
cease bal 1
The Chicago White Sox could get a big-time haul for Dylan Cease.
The Chicago White Sox better look for a haul if they are going to send Dylan Cease away. They should accept nothing less than four good prospects with at least two of them in the top 100.
Jackson Holliday and DL Hall are the two top 100 prospects coming back to the White Sox in this trade. Holliday is a shortstop and Hall is a left-handed pitcher.
It never hurts to be deep at those two positions in the farm system. The White Sox would be smart to continue stockpiling talent all over the diamond for the future.
Drew Rom and Carter Young are depth prospects that may or may not turn into MLB talents one day. Seeing them as throw-ins for a Dylan Cease trade is not a bad idea though. Baltimore's prospect farm is very strong and the White Sox could take advantage.
Trade Two
cease bal 2
The Chicago White Sox should demand good players for Dylan Cease.
Dylan Cease should not be traded for nothing right now. He is an elite player that has tons of control left on his deal.
The Orioles could try to win the World Series for the duration of his contract if they got him which is obviously every team's ultimate goal.
For that reason, the White Sox should only trade Cease for top talent. Grayson Rodriguez is a right-handed pitcher that is listed as their number two prospect right now. As for Colton Crowser, he is an outfielder that is ranked number four in their system.
Both of them are hoping to become good MLB players in the long term. Each of them are also top-100 prospects so they are universally known as players that could be great in the big leagues.
Joey Ortiz and Jud Fabian are the depth prospects added to this trade. Each of them has a ceiling but could be in MLB one day.
Trade Three
cease bal 3
The Chicago White Sox should be aiming high if they trade Dylan Cease.
There is no reason that the Chicago White Sox shouldn't make heavy demands if they are going to move Dylan Cease.
He'd be the best pitcher on the market right now and that is a reason for the White Sox to be picky if they are to move on from him.
Gunnar Henderson is the number two prospect in all of baseball which means that a lot of people think he's going to be a stud long-term. The White Sox would love to add a guy like that.
Jordan Westburg is their number five prospect and number 76 in all of baseball. He is a great player that could make an impact in the big leagues for a long time.
Landing both of these guys would be a great reason to trade Cease. It wouldn't be fun to see him go but this is the type of return that you'd actually like to see for a pitcher like that.
Braylin Tavera is an outfielder that ranks 27th in the system of the O's. The first two guys headline the return to the White Sox but you should always try to get more.
Again, a trade like this could benefit both teams but it is also risky for both sides. It is something to think about for sure.
