The Chicago White Sox made a splash late Thursday night with an offseason move that saw them acquire five players in exchange for Aaron Bummer, their longtime lefty reliever, who went to the Atlanta Braves.

The move addressed depth issues on the mound and in the field, notably adding former NL Rookie of the Year finalist Mike Soroka to their pitching staff.

General Manager Chris Getz confirmed that no players on the current roster are untouchable, indicating a potential busy offseason for the South Siders. He specifically mentioned that there is interest from multiple teams in outfielder Eloy Jiménez.

Eloy Jiménez, acquired in a trade with the Chicago Cubs, has shown promise but been plagued by injuries. Despite this, there is still plenty of intrigue and value surrounding him as he enters his age-27 season.

Primarily a left fielder, Jiménez’s defensive struggles have been evident, but his affordable contract and potential as a DH make him an appealing trade candidate.

With the White Sox open to offers on any player, it could lead to an active offseason with potential trades.
