CHICAGO (AP) — A person familiar with the situation says the Chicago White Sox have agreed to a $75 million, five-year contract with All-Star outfielder Andrew Benintendi. The person spoke to the AP on condition of anonymity because the deal was pending a physical. ESPN first reported the agreement. The 28-year-old Benintendi helped Boston win a World Series championship in 2018. He won a Gold Glove with Kansas City in 2021 and was chosen to his first All-Star team last season before the Royals traded him to the New York Yankees on July 27. He hit a career-high .304 in 126 games.
