The White Sox traded relief pitcher Craig Kimbrel to the Dodgers in exchange for outfielder AJ Pollock.
After struggling in the second half of 2021 in a setup role, Kimbrel had talked with White Sox general manager Rick Hahn and vice president Ken Williams about his place with the team. And Hahn — who never says he might trade somebody — publicly said in November that exploring a trade for the closer with 372 career saves was a possibility.
