Starting pitchers only play once every five days. No matter how good Chris Sale was/is, he has ZERO impact on 80% of his team's games.
Making that trade was the right thing to do.
Right thing to do, but it's really valuable to the team when a starter can go 220 innings. There's a carryover to the other games when one guy is going 7-8 innings a lot of the time.
