A'S ADD ALEX SPEAS
The Oakland Athletics acquired pitcher Alex Speas from the Chicago White Sox for cash.
What does it give the Oakland Athletics
In Speas, the Athletics get a young reliever who could soon get a look in the bullpen. The right-hander managed a strong 2.86 ERA with 85 strikeouts in 56.2 minor-league innings in 2023. He will begin in Triple-A with Oakland.
What does it give the Chicago White Sox
The White Sox claimed Speas off waivers from the Rangers in late 2023, but he did not impress enough to secure a roster spot this season. As Speas was not in their plans, Chicago at least got cash to improve their roster elsewhere.
Fantasy impact
This trade has no fantasy impact.
