MLB Veteran Chris Johnson signs with Chicago White Sox

The White Sox signed corner infielder Chris Johnson to a minors contract, per Fancred’s Jon Heyman. Johnson hit .275/.313/.404 over 2995 plate appearances for five different Major League teams from 2009-16, including an impressive 2013 campaign that earned him a three-year, $23.5MM extension from the Braves. Johnson spent 2017 in the Orioles’ farm system and didn’t play at all in 2018, so he will be attempting a comeback as he tries to catch on with Chicago.
