White Sox / Rockies trade

[White Sox GM (Jason)]

White Sox trade:

• OF Adam Engel (CWS) —  $1,200,000 Arb2 Arb3
• OF Luis Gonzalez (CWS) — MiLB

to the Rockies for:

• RP Mychal Givens (COL) — $3,750,000 UFA

My acquisition of Cedric Mullins + general speed within my starting lineup makes Engel a luxury. Givens should have a dependable role in Colorado's bullpen and should provide double-digit holds for the upcoming season.

Thanks to Michael for the quick negotiations.

[Rockies GM (Michael)]

Confirmed. I needed a reliable fourth outfielder and also like Gonzalez, whom I have observed since he played here at the Univ of New Mexico. Easy deal here with Jason.
