The Chicago White Sox struggle in trades with the Los Angeles Dodgers, as highlighted by recent deals involving Michael Kopech and Lance Lynn. Kopech contributed to the Dodgers' World Series win, while Tommy Edman, acquired in the same deal, was named World Series MVP. Although Miguel Vargas shows promise due to player development efforts, the overall outcome remains unfavorable for the White Sox. The trade involving Lance Lynn has also resulted in losses for Chicago, with Lynn's contribution aiding the Dodgers during the postseason despite a poor performance in his playoff start.
The Chicago White Sox might want to stop conducting trades with the Los Angeles Dodgers. The Dodgers always seem to benefit while the White Sox always come out as the losers.
The Dodgers' bullpen got a major lift last season when GM Chris Getz traded Michael Kopech to Los Angeles as part of a three-team deal. Kopech went on to record some huge outs in October on the Dodgers way toward winning the World Series.
The White Sox already appear to have lost the Lance Lynn trade, which they made with the Dodgers a couple years ago.
Lynn provided the Dodgers a starter their injury-ravaged rotation needed to get into the postseason. Lynn was awful in his only postseason start in 2023, but he was 7-2 with a respectable 4.36 ERA down the home stretch of the regular season.
