White Sox GM Shares Update on Baltimore Orioles’ Trade Target
The Baltimore Orioles would love to have Dylan Cease.
That’s certain.
He would slot into the top of their rotation and immediately improve the ceiling of what can be accomplished this year.
But, the Chicago White Sox want to ensure they get back enough of a return that helps them navigate their rebuild when trading away the ace of their pitching staff.
This could create a stalemate between the two parties.
The Orioles are navigating which of their prospects they consider to be “untouchable” and who they would be comfortable including in this package to get two years of Cease.
Maybe neither party budges on their asking price.
Baltimore will not jeopardize the future to chase a World Series ring, especially because they can’t spend for top free agents like others around the league.
They need their farm system and have done an incredible job of building it.
The White Sox know this and would love to get back some of those elite prospects with the idea they are playing for their Major League team very soon.
