White Sox Openly Shopping Andrew Benintendi
10 months agoThe Chicago White Sox are openly shopping outfielder Andrew Benintendi and would love to get out of his contract. Benintendi is still owed nearly $50 million from 2025 to 2027 under his current deal. It's going to be a hard ask for another team to take on Benintendi's contract based on the way he's played so far this year, but perhaps a contending team that wants to add a veteran left-handed corner outfielder will poke around later this month. The 29-year-old former seventh overall pick by the Boston Red Sox in 2015 out of Arkansas is slashing a weak .196/.246/.300 with six home runs, 22 RBI and 17 runs scored in 65 games in 2024 in his second year in Chicago. The White Sox's five-year, $75 million deal with Benintendi has aged terribly before two full seasons, and it's not like he's playing great defense, either.
