The White Sox acquired pitching help on Monday, trading a pair of minor leaguers for Kansas City closer Mike MacDougal.

The White Sox gave up two young pitchers in the deal. Left-hander Tyler Lumsden of Class AA Birmingham and right-hander Dan Cortes of Class A Kannapolis.

MacDougal, has missed most of this season with a shoulder injury. He saved 21 games in 2005, 27 games in 2003 and spent most of 2004 in the minor leagues after suffering through a stomach virus in April of that year.
