White Sox Sign Veteran Outfielder Austin Slater

The Chicago White Sox have added Austin Slater to bolster their outfield depth for the upcoming season.

Austin Slater, a 31-year-old free agent, has signed a major league contract with the Chicago White Sox, pending a physical.
Slater played for the San Francisco Giants, Cincinnati Reds, and Baltimore Orioles during the 2024 season, posting a .209 batting average.
He has a career .252 batting average with 40 home runs and 171 RBIs over eight MLB seasons.
The White Sox are looking to improve after a challenging 121-loss season, the worst in modern franchise history.
Slater is expected to provide outfield depth alongside Andrew Benintendi, Luis Robert Jr., and Dominic Fletcher.
