Senzel, 29, was designated for assignment by
the Washington Nationals on July 6 and released five days later.
He appeared in 64 games for Washington this year, hitting .209
with seven home runs and 18 RBIs.
In six major league seasons with the Cincinnati Reds (2019-23)
and Nationals, Senzel has posted a .235 batting average across
441 games. He has 40 homers and 143 RBIs.
Chicago officially made two others moves on Wednesday,
designating Danny Mendick for assignment and optioning fellow
third baseman Lenyn Sosa to Triple-A Charlotte.
Mendick, 30, was hitting just .197 across 47 games this season.
He had three home runs and eight RBIs.
The 24-year-old Sosa has hit .237 with four homers and 15 RBIs
in 52 big-league games with the White Sox in 2024.
The Athletic reported that Martin Maldonado also was designated
for assignment after the catcher hit a measly .119 with four
homers and 11 RBIs in 48 games this season.
