The White Sox announced the signing of free agent shortstop Paul DeJong onTuesday. The 30-year-old graduate of Antioch High School will receive $1.75 million for one season.
An above average fielder who struggled offensively with three teams in 2023, DeJong will fill the void left by 2019 batting champion and two-time All-Star Tim Anderson, whose $14 million club option for next season was not picked up after he batted a career low .245 with one homer and 14 errors in 119 games at shortstop last season.
