The White Sox are about to give Red Sox fans a reminder what their team gave up to get Chris Sale.
According to Chicago's Twitter account, the White Sox are calling up pitcher Michael Kopech to make his major league debut Tuesday against the Twins. Kopech was one of four players who the Red Sox shipped out in exchange for Sale prior to the 2017 season.
