2.70 ERA over his last seven starts, 5.60 over his first 11. Turnaround makes him more marketable, but will Sox find right offer? Trade.

Predicting who the rebuilding White Sox might deal and who they might keep as the trade deadline approaches.
7.78 ERA, 7 home runs allowed since June 18. First-ever stint on disabled list derailed solid start. Up in air.
(Chris Sweda / Chicago Tribune)
5.01 ERA his highest since 2009. Offers playoff experience to trade partner, but has hit rough patch. Up in air.
(Armando L. Sanchez / Chicago Tribune)1-2, 4.32 ERA in first three starts. Promising second start reminds why he could be key part of future. Hold.
(Nuccio DiNuzzo / Chicago Tribune)4.46 ERA with Sox, 4.56 career ERA. Averaged fewer than five innings per outing over last six starts. Up in air.
(Chris Sweda / Chicago Tribune)13-for-14 on saves, 2.87 ERA. Among most likely to be dealt because of what he offers stumbling bullpens. Trade.
(Nuccio DiNuzzo / Chicago Tribune)Seven walks, 57 strikeouts in 34 innings. Strong cases could be made to keep or trade the late-innings option. Trade.
(Chris Sweda / Chicago Tribune)2.41 ERA best among healthy relievers. A few bumps since 15-game scoreless stretch, but still a solid first half. Trade.
(Nuccio DiNuzzo / Chicago Tribune)4.14 ERA, 1.35 WHIP in 37 innings. His ERA, FIP have worsened from last year. Up in air.
(Armando L. Sanchez / Chicago Tribune)3.86 ERA as starter, 1.76 as reliever. Bounced from bullpen to rotation to bullpen again. Up in air.
(Jose M. Osorio / Chicago Tribune)

(Armando L. Sanchez / Chicago Tribune)1.60 WHIP in 24 1/3 innings. Went seven years between big-league stints with Sox. Up in air.
(Nuccio DiNuzzo / Chicago Tribune)35 2/3 innings third among relievers. Better results in second extended stay, but work to be done. Up in air.
(Brian Cassella / Chicago Tribune)
.344 on-base percentage; opponents 7-for-29 on stolen bases. At 25, gaining valuable experience for future. Hold.
(Brian Cassella / Chicago Tribune)Hit .328 in June, .333 in July. Getting into a groove on offense while splitting time with Narvaez. Hold.
(Nuccio DiNuzzo / Chicago Tribune)Team-leading 58 RBIs, .871 OPS. Leadership for young Cubans might outweigh trade possibilities. Hold.
(Chris Sweda / Chicago Tribune)Hit .316 in May, no higher than .258 in any other month. Making most of opportunity, but what happens when Yoan Moncada arrives? Hold.
(Nuccio DiNuzzo / Chicago Tribune)19 errors in 77 games; 14 in 98 games last year. Up-and-down first half, but rebuild affords him time to grow. Hold.
(Nuccio DiNuzzo / Chicago Tribune)
.213 batting average but 16 homers, 44 RBIs. Slow start might affect trade value, but free agency lies ahead. Trade.

(Chris Sweda / Chicago Tribune)
.250 batting average in 44 at-bats. Limited action, crowded infield make it unclear where he stands in plans. Up in air.
(Brian Cassella / Chicago Tribune).858 OPS, 43 RBIs with runners in scoring position. Veteran bat and clubhouse presence seemingly would fit on playoff team. Trade.
(Nuccio DiNuzzo / Chicago Tribune).247 batting average, .330 on-base percentage. Rookie is a solid defender, player Rick Renteria “wouldn’t bet against.” Hold.
(Brian Cassella / Chicago Tribune)Hitting .310 with .850 OPS, 51 RBIs. All-Star season raises value, but is a trade worth risk? Hold.
(Chris Sweda / Chicago Tribune)Hit .259 with 10 RBIs in 35 games. Optioned to Triple-A Charlotte on Monday. Roster replacement TBA. Up in air.
