CHISOX ADD RAMIREZ

The Chicago White Sox acquired pitcher Horacio Ramirez from the Kansas City Royals for outfielder Paulo Orlando.

What does it give the Chicago White Sox
Ramirez will add a little bullpen depth down the stretch, and he could even receive a spot-start due to the injury to Jose Contreras. However, he's merely a depth acquisition.

What does it give the Kansas City Royals
Orlando is a rare baseball player out of Brazil, and an extremely raw outfielder at this point. Still, the Royals did well to grab a player with upside for a borderline major-league talent such as Ramirez.
