<p>The <a class="Link" href="https://chicago.suntimes.com/white-sox" target="_blank" >White Sox</a> wanted to thread the needle at the trade deadline Aug. 3.</p><p>‘‘It was important for us to maintain the high-end talent that we have in our farm system but add players that certainly can boost our major-league club currently [and] also [are under contract] control and can help us for next year, as well,’’ general manager <b>Chris Getz </b>said four days later.</p><p>Usually, two out of three ain’t bad.</p><p>Rival clubs eyeing top prospects <b>Caleb Bonemer</b> and<b> Billy Carlson</b> were turned away. New acquisitions <b>Luis Castillo</b>, <b>Huascar Brazoban</b>, <b>Brenton Doyle </b>and<b> Joey Bart</b> are all under team control through at least 2027, when a young Sox core might be even stronger. It’s the immediate boost that has been lacking.</p><p>Castillo has a 5.89 ERA in a Sox uniform and has completed five innings only once in four starts since joining the team. Doyle is in a center-field platoon with <b>Tristan Peters</b> and made only his 10th start Tuesday against the Rangers. But he entered the game hitting .189/.189/.297 in 38 plate appearances. And those are the two who are active.</p><p>The Sox put Brazoban on the 15-day injured list Tuesday with a strained left lat and recalled fellow right-hander <b>Jonathan Cannon</b> from Triple-A Charlotte to take his place on the roster. Brazoban’s issue flared up Monday, which wound up being the fifth time he had allowed a run in his last six appearances. His arm angle dropped noticeably in August, and he has a 6.10 ERA with the Sox after what had been a breakout season for him.</p><p>There’s only so much blame to dole out for injuries. Bart having his hand broken by a hit-by-pitch in his third game with the Sox is pure bad luck, and the team did well to add <b>Jake Rogers</b> off waivers in response.</p><p>‘‘You’d love it if they just hit the ground running,’’ bench coach <b>Walker McKinven</b> said. ‘‘But we have plans on all these guys, a couple of things here or there. We acquired these guys for a reason and are still bullish on all of them. It’s difficult to make changes — even subtle changes — in the season and expect immediate results.’’</p><p>Castillo has reemphasized a changeup that powered his 10-strikeout performance against the Reds. <a class="Link" href="https://chicago.suntimes.com/white-sox/2026/08/21/white-sox-tristan-peters-second-half-slump-all-star-game-brenton-doyle-davis-martin-kyle-teel-will-venable-derek-shomon-mets-luis-robert-jr" target="_blank" ><u>Doyle has embraced swing tweaks</u></a> aimed at reviving his 20-plus-homer potential to augment his Gold Glove-caliber defense. Right-hander <b>Jose Urquidy</b>, whom the Sox acquired via minor-league trade a week before the deadline, still might prove to be a useful addition but has a 5.68 ERA with the team <a class="Link" href="https://chicago.suntimes.com/white-sox/2026/08/24/white-sox-jose-urquidy-will-venable-colson-montgomery-erick-fedde-noah-schultz-drew-thorpe-kyle-teel-caleb-bonemer-rikuu-nishida-chris-murphy-davis-martin" target="_blank" ><u>after getting rocked Monday</u></a>.</p><p>The first three weeks since the deadline don’t represent the final word on any player, especially on a team where playoff contributions in October might be far more important. But the lack of impact has been felt in the Sox’ 10-12 start to August.</p><h3>Benintendi on bereavement leave</h3><p>The Sox put outfielder/designated hitter<b> Andrew Benintendi </b>on bereavement leave and activated <b>Rikuu Nishida</b> to take his spot on the roster. With Benintendi out for a minimum of three days and a maximum of seven, Doyle got the start Tuesday against Rangers right-hander<b> Jacob deGrom</b>.</p><h3>Trade dividends</h3><p>Outfield prospect <b>Dylan Campbell</b>, who was acquired from the Phillies for outfielder <b>Derek Hill</b> in June, won Southern League player of the week after going 13-for-28 with four home runs for Double-A Birmingham. Campbell, 24, is hitting .266/.360/.444 with the Barons since the trade.</p>
