"Right-handed reliever Seranthony Dominguez and the Chicago White Sox are in agreement on a two-year, $20 million contract with a mutual option, sources told ESPN, adding another veteran to a White Sox team that has been among the most active in baseball this winter. The deal, which is pending a physical, positions Domínguez at the back end of a young White Sox bullpen and is the third multiyear contract Chicago has handed out this winter."
"Domínguez brings stability to the late innings, where he has pitched since debuting with Philadelphia in 2018. With some of the best raw stuff in baseball - each of Domínguez's five pitches is above average, and his fastball sits at 98 mph - he'll enter the season as the White Sox's closer, joining young, hard-throwing right-handers Grant Taylor and Jordan Leasure to form a big-stuff bullpen."
"Consistent strike-throwing has been Domínguez's bugaboo, and if he can do so, the White Sox will either have a cost-effective closer or a strong trade chip at the July deadline. Domínguez moved from Baltimore to Toronto at the deadline last year and posted arguably his best season, throwing a career-high 62.2 innings and striking out 79 with 36 walks and five home runs allowed."
Seranthony DomÃnguez reached agreement on a two-year, $20 million contract with the Chicago White Sox, pending a physical and including a mutual option and incentives that can raise his guarantee to $22 million. The mutual option is unlikely to be picked up. DomÃnguez will be positioned at the back end of a young White Sox bullpen as the expected closer, bringing a five-pitch mix with a 98 mph fastball but persistent command issues. He posted career highs last season after moving from Baltimore to Toronto. The White Sox added several multiyear signings as they rebuild from a 121-loss 2024 season.
