<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/alex-cora">Alex Cora</a> shared the pain of Boston Red Sox fans who watched a brutal on-field drubbing by the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/chicago-white-sox">Chicago White Sox</a>. Errors proved to be a critical factor in the 11 runs surrendered on the road, with Triston Casas himself admitting a share of the blame for the disastrous performance.



“It’s an unrealistic thing to do to point out one play in the game and say, ‘That’s why we lost.’ But that’s a pretty clear one. It pretty much changed the course of the game for the worst,” Casas confessed, acknowledging his part in the Red Sox’s shellacking at Guaranteed Rate Field.



The box score told a grim tale: five errors for the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/red-sox">Red Sox</a> compared to just one for the White Sox. It was a defensive collapse that began early. Regarding one miscue, Cora stated plainly, “Defensively, we had a chance to turn the double play, we didn’t. The interferences, we have to be better at that.” He also emphasized the need for significant improvement in the defense from the pitcher’s mound.



<h2>Cora Holds Nothing Back After Humiliating Loss</h2>



Cora didn’t sugarcoat the team’s performance, laying bare the shortcomings. The Red Sox not only played poorly in this road series opener against the White Sox but had already displayed defensive vulnerabilities at Fenway Park, where they recently dropped a four-game <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/mlb">MLB</a> series to the Blue Jays.

“We didn’t have a good week defensively at home, and this was a bad night defensively. A bad night overall,” Cora said bluntly about the team’s defense. “We didn’t hit, we didn’t play defense, we didn’t hit. Turn the page, be ready for tomorrow. But we’ve got to be better.”

<h2>Red Sox’s Road Woes Continue</h2>



The loss further highlighted the Red Sox’s struggles away from Fenway, as they now hold a meager two road victories in the 2025 MLB season. The other five road games have all resulted in losses, the majority coming during their early-season four-game series defeat against the Rangers. That stretch included three losses to the Rangers, one to the Orioles, and now this latest setback against the White Sox.

The <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/chicago-white-sox">Chicago White Sox</a> aren’t considered major contenders for the upcoming 2025 season, but they’ve been evaluating several pitchers during MLB spring training. One of them recently made headlines by striking out three consecutive World Series champions—Shohei Ohtani, Freddie Freeman, and Will Smith—showcasing his ability to handle elite hitters.



The prospect in question is Shane Smith, who has yet to make his MLB debut but is already proving he has the arm for the job. Recently, he pitched for the Biloxi Shuckers, where he posted a 3.08 ERA over 27 games (16 starts) with a 5-3 record.



That’s the kind of pitchers the White Sox need, as last season their defense struggled, resulting in 121 losses and only 41 wins—yet another year to forget, and quite a painful one. The performance from the mound was a disaster, with the majority of pitchers having an average ERA above 4.10, and only two being below that number (Garrett Crochet, Erick Fedde).



The White Sox ended up winning the game, showcasing what could be the new “face” of the team for the 2025 <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/mlb">MLB</a> season. Beating the World Series champion Dodgers 5-2 is no small feat, even if it’s just a spring training game. In the first three innings, Shane Smith was sharp, allowing only one hit and delivering five strikeouts.

<h2>The likely rotation for the White Sox</h2>



It’s worth noting that the rotation for the White Sox in the 2025 MLB season isn’t set in stone yet, but Jonathan Cannon is expected to be one of the key names on that list. Sean Burke is also anticipated to play a significant role alongside options like Martin Perez, Davis Martin, and Drew Thorpe.


 <div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#/mlb/mlb-highest-paid-coaches"></div>


<h2>How long has it been since the Chicago White Sox had a good season?</h2>



The last time they had a strong season was in 2021 when they made it to the playoffs and lost the ALDS to the Astros 3-1. The following year, in 2022, they finished with an 81-81 record, and between 2023 and 2024, they’ve endured back-to-back seasons with over 100 losses each.

The <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/new-york-yankees">New York Yankees</a> are in the process of restructuring their team following their World Series loss to the Los Angeles Dodgers. The acquisition of All-Star left-handed pitcher Max Fried, with a historic eight-year, $218 million contract, marks a major move in their efforts to strengthen the starting rotation.



After the departure of star outfielder <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/juan-soto">Juan Soto</a> to the New York Mets, the Yankees responded by acquiring 2019 National League MVP Cody Bellinger and adding seven-time All-Star Paul Goldschmidt.



Yankees manager <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/aaron-boone">Aaron Boone</a> recently announced that 2022 All-Star Jazz Chisholm Jr. will move to second base, according to CBS Sports. This decision leaves third base vacant, a position the Yankees could fill through free agency.



One option that has emerged is former <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/chicago-white-sox">Chicago White Sox</a> star Yoan Moncada. However, recent reports suggest the Yankees might not be interested in Moncada due to concerns about his health.



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><figure class="image"><img loading="lazy" width="1024" height="576" src="https://ds-images.bolavip.com/news/image?src=https://images.bolavip.com/webp/en/full/BUS_20250204_BUS_327912_Yoan-Moncada-1024x576_2aadc350.webp&amp;width=1024&amp;height=576" alt="" class="wp-image-327921" srcset="https://images.futbolsites.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2025/02/04095001/Yoan-Moncada-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https://images.futbolsites.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2025/02/04095001/Yoan-Moncada-300x169.jpg 300w, https://images.futbolsites.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2025/02/04095001/Yoan-Moncada-768x432.jpg 768w, https://images.futbolsites.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2025/02/04095001/Yoan-Moncada-1536x864.jpg 1536w, https://images.futbolsites.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2025/02/04095001/Yoan-Moncada-740x416.jpg 740w, https://images.futbolsites.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2025/02/04095001/Yoan-Moncada-490x275.jpg 490w, https://images.futbolsites.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2025/02/04095001/Yoan-Moncada-250x140.jpg 250w, https://images.futbolsites.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2025/02/04095001/Yoan-Moncada.jpg 1920w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px"></figure><figcaption>Yoan Moncada #10 of the Chicago White Sox hits a single in the first inning against the Cleveland Guardians at Progressive Field on April 08, 2024 in Cleveland, Ohio.

<h2>Moncada and injury concerns</h2>



Moncada, who owns a career .756 OPS, was considered one of MLB’s best young hitters in 2019. However, his performance has declined in recent years, partly due to injuries. He played just 12 games last season due to an adductor strain, which has led the Yankees to reconsider their interest in the player.


 <div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#/mlb/mlb-news-former-all-star-issues-warning-to-yankees-about-aaron-judges-struggles-in-2025-season"></div>


According to Mark W. Sánchez of the New York Post, the Yankees requested and received medical information about Moncada earlier this offseason. “Early in the offseason, the Yankees asked for and received medical information on Moncada, who played just 12 games with the White Sox last season because of an adductor strain,” Sánchez reported.



“A source said the Yankees have not re-engaged on Moncada, which could change once the domino effect of Bregman and other infielders are taken off the board,” Sánchez added.



<h2>What’s next for the Yankees?</h2>



The Yankees’ decision to hold off on pursuing Moncada, at least for now, suggests they are exploring other options for third base. The status of Alex Bregman and other available infielders on the free-agent market could influence the team’s final strategy. The Yankees may be waiting to see how the market plays out before making a final decision for the next <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/mlb">MLB</a> season.

The Chicago Cubs continue to make trades with the upcoming <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/mlb">MLB</a> season in mind, formalizing a surprising deal with their crosstown rivals the Chicago White Sox, leaving behind the departure of <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/cody-bellinger">Cody Bellinger</a>, who will play for the New York Yankees next season.



Former MLB Most Valuable Player Bellinger is headed to the Yankees in a trade with the Cubs that also includes right-handed reliever Cody Poteet. According to MLB.com, Chicago will send $5 million to the New York franchise as its contribution to complete the deal. The <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/chicago-cubs">Cubs</a> continue to make moves with this roster spot.



The player traded from the Cubs to the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/chicago-white-sox">White Sox</a> is none other than catcher Matt Thaiss. It is the second trade of the veteran player who came to Chicago from the Los Angeles Angels for cash in exchange and is added to the White Sox 40-man roster. 



<h2>Why did the Cubs decide to trade Thaiss?</h2>



The Cubs didn’t get what they were looking for from Thaiss’ time with the Chicago team, as the 29-year-old catcher hit .204 with two home runs and 16 RBIs in his 57 games last season. They also added Carson Kelly from the Texas Rangers, so Thaiss lost out on outfield playing time.

<h2>Chicago Cubs want All-Star signee after Bellinger trade</h2>



The recent trade involving Cody Bellinger has changed the Cubs’ financial reality, giving them the space and opportunity to pursue elite players heading into the new MLB season. By trading Bellinger’s substantial salary to the New York Yankees, Chicago is looking to secure the income of an All-Star player without paying the high salary of the now new Yankees player.

<h2>How much space did Bellinger’s salary take up for the Cubs?</h2>



Bellinger had a guaranteed salary of $27.5 million for next season, saving the Cubs approximately $22.5 million. That will allow Chicago to go after the likes of rumored two-time All-Star Walker Buehler, a potential target for Bellinger and Thaiss’ former team.

In an unexpected turn of events, the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/boston-red-sox">Boston Red Sox</a> have made a significant move to strengthen their pitching rotation by acquiring talented left-handed pitcher Garrett Crochet from the Chicago White Sox.



This trade represents a pivotal moment for both teams. The Red Sox aim to bolster their pitching staff to enhance their chances of competing for a title, while the White Sox focus on rebuilding and developing young talent.



As part of the trade, the White Sox received a package of prospects headlined by Kyle Teel, a standout catcher known for his defensive prowess and powerful bat. Additionally, the White Sox acquired outfielder Braden Montgomery, infielder Chase Meidroth, and right-handed pitcher Wikelman Gonzalez.



For their part, the Red Sox hope Crochet, with his explosive fastball and exceptional strikeout ability, will become a cornerstone of their rotation. However, his adjustment to a new team and environment will be crucial in determining his impact.

</div></figure>



<h2>What Led to the White Sox Trading Crochet?</h2>



Interestingly, Crochet had previously expressed a desire to sign a long-term contract with the White Sox. However, after failing to reach an agreement, the team opted to trade him. This decision raises questions about the pitcher’s motivation and how committed he will be to his new team.


 <div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#/mlb/mlb-news-mets-gm-david-stearns-makes-it-clear-on-adding-key-player-to-support-juan-soto"></div>


<h2>A New Challenge for Crochet with the Red Sox</h2>



The Red Sox will need to closely monitor Crochet’s performance and ensure he is fully committed to the organization. If he can adapt to his new environment and maintain his impressive level of play, Crochet could become a foundational piece in Boston’s pitching rotation for years to come in the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/mlb">MLB</a>.

The MLB offseason is heating up, with New York Yankees star Juan Soto dominating headlines. But Soto isn’t the only name generating buzz. Teams across the league, like the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/chicago-cubs">Chicago Cubs</a>, are eager to bolster their rosters ahead of the 2025 season, and one standout player on the radar is Chicago White Sox pitcher Garrett Crochet.



Crochet, who became a free agent at the end of the 2024 season, has drawn interest from multiple franchises. Known for his impressive stats and potential to anchor a pitching staff, the 24-year-old lefty is reportedly a top target for teams looking to make a statement. 



According to MLB Insider Jon Morosi, the Cubs are emerging as frontrunners in the race to sign Crochet, but they’re not alone. The Cincinnati Reds and Baltimore Orioles have also been linked to the former first-round pick.



The Cubs have a history of in-city trades with the White Sox, as evidenced by the 2017 Jose Quintana deal. This shared history could give the Cubs an edge in negotiations, especially with Crochet’s addition seen as a key piece for their postseason ambitions.

While no formal offers have been made public, ongoing rumors suggest that Crochet could play a pivotal role in reshaping the Cubs’ rotation for the 2025 season. As the offseason progresses, all eyes will remain on Crochet and his potential landing spot, with the Cubs poised to make a splash in the trade market.


 <div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#/mlb/mlb-news-tom-ricketts-explains-why-the-cubs-failed-to-make-the-playoffs-for-the-third-straight-year"></div>


<h2>The Cubs’ chances of acquiring Crochet</h2>



As the Chicago Cubs set their sights on White Sox pitcher Garrett Crochet, the team is weighing its options. Other franchises, including the Orioles, are also keen on the 25-year-old left-hander, who is expected to have a bright future in the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/mlb">MLB</a>. According to ESPN’s David Schoenfield, “White Sox general manager Chris Getz is reportedly prioritizing position players over pitching prospects in a potential Crochet trade, and perhaps only the Red Sox can match Baltimore’s depth in that category.“



While the Red Sox are focused on acquiring Juan Soto, Baltimore could emerge as a strong contender for Crochet. However, like the Cubs, they have yet to present a formal offer for the pitcher. The Cincinnati Reds are also reportedly in the mix.



Cincinnati, looking to bolster its roster with a star player, could make a push for Crochet, though no official proposal has surfaced from them either. With the situation still unfolding, Crochet will likely need to wait and see which team presents the most compelling contract offer.



<h2>Crochet’s performance last season</h2>



Crochet has been a standout performer for the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/chicago-white-sox">White Sox</a>, even as the team failed to reach the playoffs. Despite the team’s struggles, Crochet delivered solid performances throughout the season. Over 32 games as a starter, he showcased his ability to provide stability on the mound, earning recognition as one of the top young pitchers in the league.



With 123 hits, 61 runs, 33 walks, and 209 strikeouts, Crochet has piqued the interest of several historic MLB franchises. However, the White Sox star remains patient, as no formal offers have come through yet. That said, it’s expected that proposals could emerge in the near future.

MLB Rumors: Chicago Cubs and several teams eyeing Chicago White Sox pitching star - Bolavip US

Last week, reports emerged suggesting that <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/chicago-white-sox" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Chicago White Sox</a> owner Jerry Reinsdorf might be “open to selling” the team and is in talks with potential buyers, including former All-Star pitcher Dave Stewart. This is significant because Stewart has been working on bringing a Major League Baseball team to Nashville, raising questions about whether the White Sox could relocate there. MLB Commissioner Rob Manfred was asked this very question as the World Series is set to kick off on Friday.



Rob Manfred addressed the future of the White Sox, and like most commissioners faced with this issue, he downplayed the idea of the team moving, stating, “Chicago is an anchor city for us.” He acknowledged that the team faces challenges, particularly with the current stadium location, but expressed confidence that the White Sox would remain in Chicago with two teams in the city.



If this sounds oddly familiar, it should, as the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/columbus-crew" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Columbus Crew</a> of Major League Soccer faced a similar issue in 2017 when team owner Anthony Precourt wanted to move operations to Austin, Texas. The “Save the Crew” movement saw fans and community members rally to prevent the Crew from relocating. Supporters quickly organized protests, social media campaigns, and merchandise to raise awareness after Precourt expressed intentions to move due to difficulties in securing a new stadium. Their efforts gained significant traction, leading to increased media attention and support from local leaders. Ultimately, a new ownership group, led by the Haslam family and Pete Edwards, purchased the team and committed to keeping it in Columbus, along with plans for a new stadium. This successful movement highlighted the power of fan engagement and community advocacy in sports, influencing how teams approach their relationships with supporters.



Don Garber, MLS commissioner, had to do a lot of backpedaling when the new ownership group came in and even offered to build a new downtown stadium for the Columbus Crew, which is up and running today. Garber had spent most of 2017 criticizing the Crew’s attendance and team revenue, paving the way for the team’s potential relocation.



<h2>Will the Chicago White Sox Move? </h2>



In a CBS Sports report, there are ongoing discussions hinting at the possibility of a new stadium, either in Chicago—where the White Sox are exploring new locations closer to downtown—or in another city. Reinsdorf has a history of using the threat of relocation to negotiate for a new stadium, as seen in the past with Tampa Bay. He has already suggested that when he is no longer involved, his son Michael will need to consider selling the team, potentially indicating that a move could be more profitable.

The outcome right now is at a stalemate, as the Chicago White Sox are being run as a team looking to close up shop, producing an abysmal 41-121 record, the worst in <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/mlb" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">MLB</a> for 2024. Attendance at Guaranteed Rate Field was only 17,931, down from the previous year’s figure of 21,405 fans.



<h2>History of the Chicago White Sox </h2>



The Chicago White Sox, established in 1900, are one of the oldest teams in Major League Baseball. Originally known as the Chicago White Stockings, the team quickly made a name for itself, winning its first championship in 1901. The early years saw the White Sox compete fiercely in the American League, but their reputation was marred by the infamous 1919 Black Sox Scandal, where eight players were banned for conspiring to throw the World Series. Despite this setback, the team rebounded, capturing the World Series title in 2005, ending an 88-year championship drought, and marking a significant moment in franchise history.


 <div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#/mlb/have-the-new-york-yankees-ever-won-the-world-series-a-look-at-their-championship-history"></div>


Over the years, the White Sox have developed a passionate fan base and have had several notable players, including Hall of Famers like Frank Thomas, Luke Appling, and Minnie Miñoso. The team plays its home games at Guaranteed Rate Field, which has been their home since 1991. The White Sox have experienced periods of both struggle and success, with their most recent World Series appearance in 2005 highlighting a commitment to building a competitive roster.

<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/juan-soto">Juan Soto</a> starred in a historic night by hitting three home runs in the same game, leading the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/new-york-yankees">New York Yankees</a> to a 4-1 victory over the Chicago White Sox. With this result, the Yankees regained first place in the American League East Division.



Soto once again demonstrated his power by punishing the White Sox’s pitching. His three home runs were instrumental in securing the team’s victory. The Dominican was excited about his performance and stressed that hitting home runs is one of his greatest strengths.



Yankees manager Aaron Boone praised Soto’s performance and considered him one of the best hitters of the season. Boone highlighted the consistency and power of Soto, who has become a key piece in the team.



<h2>Soto makes history and Boone celebrates</h2>



Juan Soto wrote a new page in his outstanding career by hitting three home runs in the same game for the first time. This feat makes him one of the few players to achieve such a feat in the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/mlb">MLB</a>.

The <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/chicago-white-sox">Chicago White Sox</a> are once again in search of a manager, less than two years after hiring Pedro Grifol on November 3, 2022. Grifol was fired by the team on Thursday morning due to the team’s poor results.



Along with Grifol, bench coach Charlie Montoyo, third base coach Eddie Rodriguez, and hitting assistant Mike Tosar were also relieved of their duties. Grady Sizemore will take over as interim manager for the remainder of the 2024 season.



According to general manager Chris Getz, the White Sox are looking for a turnaround with the hiring of a new manager. “We felt it was the right time to make this move,” Getz said. “Our job is to turn the page and create a positive environment for current players and young prospects who will soon be coming to the major leagues.”



<h2>The Reasons Behind Grifol’s Firing at Chicago White Sox</h2>



“There’s a lot of ways to evaluate a manager and his coaching staff,” Getz said. “I learned more about the makeup of the major league team and was able to dig deeper into other areas of the organization.”



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><figure class="image"><img loading="lazy" width="1024" height="576" src="https://ds-images.bolavip.com/news/image?src=https://images.bolavip.com/webp/en/full/BUS_20240809_BUS_156473_Chicago-White-Sox-1024x576_303155f1.webp&amp;width=1024&amp;height=576" alt="" class="wp-image-156439" srcset="https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/08/Chicago-White-Sox-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/08/Chicago-White-Sox-300x169.jpg 300w, https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/08/Chicago-White-Sox-768x432.jpg 768w, https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/08/Chicago-White-Sox-1536x864.jpg 1536w, https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/08/Chicago-White-Sox.jpg 1920w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px"></figure><figcaption>Andrew Vaughn #25 of the Chicago White Sox is congratulated by Corey Julks #30 after Vaughn scored against the Oakland Athletics in the top of the fourth inning at the Oakland Coliseum on August 5, 2024 in Oakland, California.

“As the season went on, I realized there were some mismatches along the way,” Getz added. “Different belief systems and a lack of production in general. We looked at the number of games we lost after taking the lead and the lack of ability to come back from behind. Something was wrong.”



<h2>Possible Chicago White Sox managers</h2>



The Dodgers duo, first base coach Clayton McCullough and bench coach Danny Lehmann, &nbsp;are possible options.&nbsp; Speaking of successful organizations, Astros hitting coach Troy Snitker was nominated for the Cleveland Guardians’ job last year.


<div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#/mlb/fired-pedro-grifol-out-as-chicago-white-sox-manager"></div>


A.J. Pierzynski was recently mentioned as a strong candidate for the position. It’s no secret that Pierzynski, like most former MLB catchers, sees himself as a future manager and said he’d love to interview for the job.



<h2>Ozzie Guillen one of the options for manager of the Chicago White Sox</h2>



After the team’s 20th consecutive defeat, Ozzie Guillen made public his entertaining opinion on the hiring of Grifol over him. “I don’t think I was that bad as a coach, but they chose Pedro in front of me,” Guillen said with a laugh on the team’s TV show after the game.

The club had been on a 21-game losing streak just two days prior and has a 2024 record of only 28 wins and 89 defeats. The White Sox are the worst team in <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/mlb" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">MLB</a> by a significant margin, being the only team to lose more than 80 games this season. 



Chris Getz, the White Sox’s senior vice president and general manager, expressed disappointment with the team’s performance in a statement: “Despite the on-field struggles and lack of success, we appreciate the effort and professionalism Pedro and the staff brought to the ballpark every day.”



<h2>Pedro Grifol’s Poor Managerial Numbers</h2>



Grifol, who was appointed ahead of the 2023 season, recorded an 88-189 record during his two seasons with the ball club. In his first season, the White Sox went 61-101. While expectations were low this season, the team was on course to lose even more games than in 2023.

During the year, the White Sox had a 14-game losing streak, only to worsen with a 21-game winless streak later on. The White Sox’s 28 wins are on pace to surpass the 1962 New York Mets, who won only 40 games and lost 120 in their inaugural season, one of the worst records all-time for one season.

In a stunning move, the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/new-york-yankees">New York Yankees</a> have made a significant addition to their bullpen, acquiring the talented reliever Keynan Middleton. This strategic trade showcases the Yankees’ commitment to strengthening their pitching roster as they aim for postseason success. Middleton’s arrival brings fresh hope and anticipation to the Yankees faithful.



The Yankees didn’t hesitate to make a bold move to bolster their bullpen, acquiring Keynan Middleton from the Chicago White Sox. In exchange, the Yankees parted ways with right-handed pitcher Juan Carela, who had shown promise with impressive numbers in High-A. The deal reflects the Yankees’ determination to secure their position as contenders.


<div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#20230730#BUS#38119"></div>


Middleton, a 29-year-old reliever, brings a wealth of experience to the Yankees’ bullpen. With a 3.96 ERA in 36 appearances for the White Sox, he has demonstrated glimpses of brilliance on the mound. The Yankees’ front office is confident that Middleton’s addition will provide crucial depth to their pitching staff, allowing Manager Aaron Boone to utilize him in high-leverage situations.



<h2>Keynan Middleton’s Impact on the Yankees</h2>



As a reliable and versatile reliever, Middleton’s arrival will inject much-needed stability into the Yankees’ bullpen. His ability to handle critical innings and neutralize opposing lineups will be a valuable asset in close games. The move not only strengthens the Yankees’ bullpen but also sends a clear message to the league that they are determined to compete at the highest level.



The trade exemplifies the Yankees’ proactive approach to the trade deadline, showcasing their commitment to immediate success while keeping an eye on the future. By acquiring Middleton, they address their current bullpen needs while building for a successful postseason run. The Yankees are leaving no stone unturned in their pursuit of World Series glory.



This Yankees’ acquisition of Keynan Middleton sets the stage for an exciting second half of the season. As the team pushes for a postseason berth, Middleton’s impact on the bullpen could be the X-factor in their journey towards championship glory. The baseball world awaits eagerly to witness the unfolding drama of this strategic move by the New York Yankees.

Yankees Make Bold Move: Keynan Middleton Joins the Bullpen in a Strategic Trade

The <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/los-angeles-dodgers">Los Angeles Dodgers</a> have made some strategic roster moves, designating left-hander Justin Bruihl and infielder Eddys Leonard for assignment. These bold decisions were aimed at creating space on the 40-man roster for newly acquired pitchers Lance Lynn and Joe Kelly, who officially join the team after a trade with the White Sox.



As the MLB trade deadline looms, the Dodgers have a week to explore their options with both players, either trading them or passing them through waivers. Justin Bruihl, 26, has been a familiar presence in the Dodgers’ bullpen since his addition to the roster in August 2021. While he has demonstrated reliability as a depth arm, his 3.65 ERA falls slightly above league average.


<div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#20230728#BUS#36967"></div>


Eddys Leonard, 22, was added to the Dodgers’ roster in November 2021 to protect him from the Rule 5 draft. In the lower levels, Leonard displayed promising hitting skills. However, his performance has tapered off since then. This season has been more challenging for Leonard, struggling in Double-A.



<h2>Trade Deadline Looms with Limited Time</h2>



The Dodgers face a time-sensitive challenge as they explore options for Bruihl and Leonard. With the trade deadline days away, the pressure is on to make the most of the available opportunities. Left-handed relief pitchers, like Bruihl, are always in demand, and his remaining option years make him an appealing option for potential suitors.



Moreover, with just over a year of service time, Bruihl could serve as valuable bullpen depth for another club in the foreseeable future. On the other hand, Leonard’s struggles this season may give pause to some teams, but his status with one option year still remaining after this one, could attract interest in the long term.



As the Dodgers navigate the trade deadline waters, they must consider the strengths and weaknesses of both players. Bruihl’s ability to induce ground balls and his solid walk rate might be enticing for teams in need of reliable left-handed relief options. Meanwhile, Leonard’s past hitting prowess in the lower levels could intrigue organizations looking for young infield talent to develop.
