Chicago Cubs: 3 possible Kris Bryant trades with Chicago White Sox

The Cubs are going to pick up his option for 2021 but that doesn’t mean he will play for them. He only has one year left and a lot of teams are believed to be in on the former All-Star third baseman. He would bring a lot to a team that is looking to take the next step.

On the White Sox Talk Podcast, NBC’s Chuck Garfien and David Kaplan discussed the possibility of the Chicago White Sox making a run Bryant. Both believed it is possible and something that could be considered. The White Sox might have to give up one thing extra because of who they are dealing with but they might consider it.
