Erick Fedde Signs Two-Year Deal with Chicago White Sox

The right-handed pitcher returns to the majors after a successful season in the Korea Baseball Organization.

Erick Fedde, a right-handed pitcher, has signed a two-year, $15 million deal with the Chicago White Sox.
Fedde spent the 2023 season in the Korea Baseball Organization (KBO), where he won the league MVP award with a 20-6 record, a 2.00 ERA, and 209 strikeouts against 35 walks in 180.1 innings.
Before his stint in the KBO, Fedde spent six seasons with the Washington Nationals, where he had a 21-33 record with a 5.41 ERA.
Fedde's signing comes as part of the White Sox's roster overhaul under new general manager Chris Getz, which could also see the trade of ace Dylan Cease.
The New York Mets had also expressed interest in signing Fedde.
