3B Wladimir Galindo (Cubs) -prospect
White Sox accept. I like Berrios long term, but I need some pitching now to fill a spot in my rotation and I'm not sure Berrios is quite ready. Hopefully Gray stays healthy and will give me very solid rotation in the short term. Vogt will also give me a decent catcher, he's not really great in anything, but considering my other options are Castro and Gomes he's an improvement and should give me a solid contending lineup. I also had to trade two of my favorite specs in Nevin and Harvey, both are a ways off, but should be really good options once they're ready. Along with a swap of prospects and DD picks to make everyone happy.
I see the trade as Berrios for Gray, proven track record in Gray offset by injury concerns and 3 more years of Berrios. Vogt for Nevin+Harvey. And DD picks, Galindo, and Tatis as minor pieces fill in any difference in opinions on player values.
