The Chicago White Sox sent shockwaves throughout the Winter Meetings on Tuesday by agreeing to trade Chris Sale to the Boston Red Sox in exchange for four prospects. The trade may trigger a fire sale for the White Sox, with that potentially involving Todd Frazier.
Chicago acquired Frazier last December from the Cincinnati Reds as part of a three-team trade that involved the Los Angeles Dodgers. Not long after the trade was completed, Dodgers president of baseball operations Andrew Friedman said his club could have landed Frazier as part of the deal.
Los Angeles didn’t feel the need to acquire Frazier, given Justin Turner’s presence, Friedman explained at the time.
