Chicago White Sox Eyeing Trade for Former Cy Young Winner

The Chicago White Sox could be buyers at the trade deadline, with rumors suggesting they are interested in acquiring former Cy Young winner Sandy Alcantara. According to ESPN's Jeff Passan, teams are more bullish on Alcantara this deadline than they were last time around. The White Sox have a lot of young talent, which could make a trade for Alcantara relatively easy. Sandy Alcantara is a 30-year-old pitcher who throws hard, eats innings, and induces ground balls. The White Sox have had some embarrassing seasons in recent years, but being buyers at the trade deadline could be a turning point for the team. The Cubs and White Sox have both proven they can win in the past, and this trade deadline could be an interesting one for both teams. With Alcantara's contract having just this year and a club option for less than the qualifying offer remaining, he could be a valuable addition to the White Sox roster. The White Sox have a strong young core, and adding a veteran pitcher like Alcantara could make them a more competitive team.
