The St. Louis Cardinals have acquired right-hander Erick Fedde and outfielder Tommy Pham as part of a three-team trade that also moved hard-throwing reliever Michael Kopech to the Los Angeles Dodgers. St. Louis got Fedde and Pham from the major league-worst Chicago White Sox, who also sent Kopech to the Dodgers. The NL West leaders also acquired utilityman Tommy Edman from the Cardinals. The White Sox received infield prospects Miguel Vargas, Alexander Albertus and Jeral Perez from the Dodgers. Fedde should provide a boost for the Cards’ rotation as they try to rally into a playoff spot after they missed the postseason last year.
