The Chicago White Sox agreed to terms with third baseman Jake Lamb on a major league deal Tuesday.
The veteran left-handed hitter was released by the Atlanta Braves on Saturday.
Lamb, 30 struggled last season, batting .193/.283/.352 with three homers and 10 RBIs in 31 games with the Arizona Diamondbacks and Oakland Athletics.
He was a National League All-Star in 2017 and is a career .239/.329/.435 hitter with 84 homers and 312 RBIs in 609 games with the Diamondbacks (2014-20) and A’s.
