JULKS JOINS THE WHITE SOX

The Chicago White Sox acquired outfielder Corey Julks from the Houston Astros for pitcher Luis Rodriguez.

What does it give the Chicago White Sox
The White Sox need all the help they can find at all positions right now, so adding Julks makes sense. He might be able to carve out more playing time with Chicago.

What does it give the Houston Astros
The Astros had recently designated Julks for assignment, so they did well to get a prospect in return. Rodriguez is a 20-year-old reliever who has decent upside.
