REPORT: Chicago White Sox general manager has revealed exciting news following recent trade acquisition.

The Chicago White Sox were in need of outfield help when they swung a trade with the Arizona Diamondbacks earlier this month.

They were offered either Dominic Fletcher or Jake McCarthy to fill that void, and they ultimately chose the former over the latter. Less than two weeks later, Spring Training has gotten underway, and the front office appears to be satisfied with their decision.

White Sox general manager Chris Getz spoke with reporters on Tuesday, touching on the team’s current outfield situation. As was passed along by CHGO Sports’ Vinnie Duber and Sox Machine’s James Fegan, Getz said Fletcher has “a leg up” on the starting right field job.

The 26-year-old’s stiffest competition in right field is Gavin Sheets, a former top prospect who appeared in 124 and 118 games the last two seasons. His production has fallen off three years in a row, however, leading to the opening Fletcher is trying to fill.
