Gage Workman News: Dealt across town

The White Sox acquired Workman from the Cubs on Saturday in exchange for cash.

Nick Maton was designated for assignment to make room on the roster for Workman. The Cubs plucked Workman from the Tigers in December's Rule 5 Draft, but he barely played while striking out in six of his 15 plate appearances. Workman, who is a good defensive infielder and can handle multiple spots, should work in a utility role for the White Sox.
