Mandatory Credit: Mitch Stringer-Imagn Images The Chicago White Sox have reached an agreement with free agent outfielder Austin Slater, the New York Post reported Monday.
Terms were not reported for the 31-year-old veteran, who split the 2024 season between the San Francisco Giants, Cincinnati Reds and Baltimore Orioles. He hit a combined .209 with two homers and 18 RBIs in 84 games.
Slater is a career .252 hitter with 40 home runs, 171 RBIs and 48 stolen bases in 634 games with the Giants (2017-24), Reds and Orioles.
The White Sox are coming off a 121-loss campaign, a dubious record for the modern era. They hired Will Venable as their new manager on Oct. 31.
