Yanks, White Sox deal
SAN DIEGO (AP)—The New
York Yankees end Chicago
White Sox settled for second
best. swapping pitchers when
they really wanted to trade hit
ters, as the official portion of
baseball's annual winter
meetings came to a close
Thursday.
The trade that the two clubs
made sent left-hander Britt
Bums and two minor leaguers
to the Yankees for right-hander
joe Cowley and catcher Ron
Hassey.
The trade the Yankees and
White Sox might yet make
would send free-agent catcher
Carlton Fisk to the Yankees for
designated hitter Don Baylor.
The deal was the 11th at these
meetings, involving 25 major
league players.
Before making the second
deal with New York, the White
Sox must first sign Fisk, and
bath players are demanding
bonuses for waiving no-trade
rights. Agent Jerry Kapstein.
who represents each, said
Thursday that neither has yet
given assurances these rights
will be waived.
Though neither club would
confirm that the Fisk-Baylor
deal would be made. White Sox
Genera) Manager Ken Harrelson
said. "It's Kapstein's party
now. You have to follow his
lead, and that's what we’re
doing.”
Kapstein said "nothing is im
minent" with Fisk.
Burns, a 26-year-old left
hander, was 18-11 with a 3.96
ERA last year for the White Sox,
from whom he had asked to be
traded. An earlier trade with
Atlanta for Bums had fallen
through. Bums broke in with
the White Sox in 1979 and has
spent the past 6 1-2 seasons
with the club.
Cowley, a 27-year-old right
hander, was 12-6 with a 3.95
ERA. making 26 of his 30 ap
pearances as a starter. Cowley
was signed as a free agent by the
Yankees on Oct. 20. 1983.
Hassey, 32. hit .296 for the
Yankees last season with 42 RBI
and 13 home runs in 267 at
bats. A left-handed hitter,
Hassey was platooned at catcher
for much of the season with
Butch Wynegar, who is a free
agent.
The only catchers left now on
New York's roster who have
major league experience are
second-year player Scott
Bradley and Juan Espino.
"We have plans to take care
of our catching needs, and
we’re not concerned about it,"
Yankees Manager Lou Pinielia
said, indicating a Fisk deal
could be made soon.
