What You Need To Know About The Chris Sale Trade

It happened. I didn't want it to happen, and even as it became clearer that it was going to happen, and the White Sox were going to tear it all down and start over, I just hoped harder that it wouldn't. But it has. Chris Sale has been traded to the Boston Red Sox for Yoan Moncada , Michael Kopech , Luis Basabe and Victor Diaz . What do you need to know about the trade?

I got about 350 words in before I decided to scrap it. Chris Sale is gone now, and while I'm not happy about it -- I understand it, but that doesn't mean I need to enjoy it -- I don't really feel like wallowing in it, either. I'll let that happen when I see Sale pitching in the postseason for the Red Sox next year after we just finished wading through a 65-win season. Instead I've decided that the only impact Chris Sale will have on this post is using his trade value to try and determine what we can get for the other stud in our rotation, Jose Quintana .
