Anderson, 29, will earn $12.5 million next season, with the
White Sox also holding a $14 million option for 2024. Anderson
made $9.5 million last season in the final year of his six-year
$25 million deal that included the two options.
It was an all-around disappointing season for Anderson and the
White Sox. Anderson played in just 79 games because of injuries,
batting .301 with a .734 OPS and six home runs with 25 RBIs as
Chicago finished 81-81 and missed the playoffs despite
projections they could be one of the better teams in the
American League.
Over seven major league seasons, all with the White Sox,
Anderson is a career .288 hitter with a .759 OPS and 97 home
runs with 313 RBIs while proving high-level range on the left
side of the infield. The former first-round draft pick in 2013
was an All-Star in each of the past two seasons.
The White Sox hired Pedro Grifol as their new manager last week
replacing Tony La Russa, who left during the 2022 season because
of health considerations.
