Dominic Fletcher Traded To The White Sox
The Arizona Diamondbacks have traded outfielder Dominic Fletcher to the Chicago White Sox in exchange for right-handed pitching prospect Cristian Mena.

Gavin Sheets Makes Offseason Swing Changes
After a dismal season in 2023, Chicago White Sox outfielder Gavin Sheets tried to become "more athletic" with his swing this offseason, getting better ball flight while making mechanical changes.

Oscar Colas Expected To Open 2024 In Minors
Chicago White Sox outfielder Oscar Colas is expected to start the 2024 season in the minor leagues, according to Scott Merkin of MLB.com.

White Sox Sign Kevin Pillar To Minor-League Deal
The Chicago White Sox signed free-agent outfielder Kevin Pillar to a minor-league deal on Friday, according to a source. Pillar will make $3 million if he's on the major-league roster.
