White Sox Acquire Reliever Cam Booser from Red Sox

The Chicago White Sox strengthened their bullpen on Saturday by acquiring left-handed reliever Cam Booser from the Boston Red Sox. In exchange, the White Sox sent minor league pitcher Yhoiker Fajardo to Boston.

Booser, 32, has overcome significant personal challenges, including alcohol abuse, injuries, and a bicycling accident, to make his mark in the majors. Last season, he posted an impressive 3.38 ERA with one save and 43 strikeouts across 43 relief appearances. His perseverance and triumph over adversity earned him the Tony Conigliaro Award.
