Paul DeJong signs major league deal with White SoxNovember 22, 2023 | 03:06 PM

The Chicago White Sox have signed shortstop Paul DeJong to a one-year, major league contract. Writer's Analysis: The White Sox declined their club option on Tim Anderson earlier in the offseason and have signed veteran Paul DeJong. He bounced back from a few tough seasons early in the 2023 campaign but struggled following moves to the Blue Jays and Giants later in the year, finishing with a .207 average with 14 home runs, four steals, and a .613 OPS across 112 games. He will serve as a stop-gap for top prospect Colson Montgomery while providing solid defense at the shortstop position.
