Chicago White Sox outfield acquisitions

Overview

The Chicago White Sox have made moves to increase their outfield depth by acquiring veteran players through trades for cash considerations.

In one transaction, the team acquired 38-year-old outfielder Tommy Pham from the Philadelphia Phillies. Manager Will Venable indicated that Pham provides a “necessary right-handed bat to counter left-handed pitching.”

In a separate move, the White Sox acquired 33-year-old outfielder Jake Cave from the Tampa Bay Rays. Because Cave was on a minor league deal and not on a 40-man roster, the acquisition was eligible following the trade deadline. Both Pham and Cave joined the club before the September 1 cutoff, making them eligible for the postseason roster.
