The Chicago White Sox have signed veteran outfielder Michael A. Taylor to a one-year, $1.95 million contract, marking a notable shift from their offseason strategy of minor-league signings. This deal, which includes performance bonuses, is seen as a depth move rather than a prelude to trading All-Star Luis Robert Jr. General Manager Chris Getz emphasized that the team aims to manage Robert Jr.'s workload to prevent injuries. While Taylor is an elite defensive player, boasting a Gold Glove and strong defensive metrics, his batting average has been less impressive.
