The Chicago White Sox announced Monday they agreed to terms with outfielder Randal Grichuk on a one-year, $1.25 million contract.
The 34-year-old Grichuk elected for free agency on May 1 rather than accept an outright assignment to the minor leagues after the New York Yankees designated him for assignment. Grichuk hit .194 with two RBIs in 16 games for the Yankees after signing a minor league deal with them during spring training. The Yankees DFA'd him to make room for starting pitcher Elmer Rodriguez.
A first-round draft pick of the Los Angeles Angels in 2009, Grichuk is a .250 hitter with 212 home runs, 631 RBIs and a .464 slugging percentage in 1,376 games with the St. Louis Cardinals, Toronto Blue Jays, Colorado Rockies, Arizona Diamondbacks, Angels, Kansas City Royals and Yankees. He's also appeared in 15 postseason games, batting .180 with three home runs and four RBIs.
The White Sox also placed outfielder Austin Hays on the 10-day injured list with a left calf strain. The move is retroactive to May 2. Hays is hitting .233 with a home run and seven RBIs in 12 games.
In another move, utilityman Tanner Murray was transferred from the 10-day to the 60-day injured list. Murray dislocated his left shoulder making a diving catch on April 26 in a game against the Washington Nationals. Murray hit .214 with one home run and three RBIs in 13 games.
