White Sox trade Lance Lynn to Rays in one of these 3 insane trade packages

The Chicago White Sox are an incredibly bad team and it is a rotten shame that we are even having this conversation.
They are going to be massive sellers at the trade deadline and that is so much less fun than being buyers. It would be so nice to see them add right now in preparation for their playoff push.
Instead, rumors of Lance Lynn potentially going to the Tampa Bay Rays are the talk of the town. Hopefully, if anything, they find a way to do it the right way.
If the White Sox do trade Lynn to the Tampa Bay Rays, the return might look something like this:
Trade One

The Chicago White Sox are not going to get as much for Lance Lynn.
The Chicago White Sox are not going to get all that much from the Rays in a trade for just Lance Lynn. Anyone they can get that might turn into a good Major League Baseball player would be a win for them.
Heriberto Hernandez is an outfielder that is currently the number 16 prospect in the Rays' system. He is currently 23 years old and playing for the Montgomery Biscuits of AA.
He is a talented player that has good power and a strong arm in the outfield. The White Sox might enjoy adding a player like that if they are trading Lance Lynn away.
If Lynn found his way to the Rays, they might be able to take advantage of his great stuff that he has shown. He has had a home run problem but if any team can help him figure it out, it is the Rays.
Trade Two

The Chicago White Sox could try to bring back some pitching this year.
The Chicago White Sox are a team looking to bring something back for their tradeable assets. One of those is Lance Lynn who is clearly getting some interest from contenders.
He wants to pitch in the playoffs and he would certainly get that chance with the Rays. As mentioned before, if there were a team that could get the most out of a guy like this, it is the Tampa Bay Rays.
Sandy Gaston is the number 21 prospect in the Tampa Bay Rays system and JJ Goss is the number 26 guy. Both of them are right-handed pitchers that could come to the White Sox organization and develop.
With all of the trades that the White Sox make, if they can hit on just a couple of these lower-end prospects, they could get back on track with their organization. Obviously, pitching is very important and they can add some pitchers for Lynn.
Trade Three

A White Sox trade with the Rays could involve more than just Lance Lynn.
The Chicago White Sox are looking to trade a lot more than Lance Lynn right now. There are a whole lot of players that could be moved at one point or another before the August 1st deadline.
A few can be included in this deal with Lynn too. The Tampa Bay Rays can add to their bullpen by taking Aaron Bummer and Joe Kelly in the deal with Lynn. All three of these pitchers would find immediate success and resurgence with a team like the Rays.
That could help the White Sox get a better return as well. Cole Wilcox is the number seven prospect in Tampa Bay's organization. He is 24 years old and pitching in AA right now. The White Sox would love to see if they could turn him into a big-league pitcher.
Trevor Martin is the number 30 prospect in Tampa Bay's system. Throwing him in the trade could end up working out for the White Sox but it isn't guaranteed. Again, adding pitching is never a bad idea.
Trading Lance Lynn to the Rays may happen but nothing is guaranteed at this deadline. Expect the unexpected.
