Chicago White Sox are continuing to make moves in what turned out to be a particularly busy offseason for them. According to several reports, White Sox signed free agent pitcher Dallas Keuchel.

The Athletic’s Ken Rosenthal reports that Keuchel and White Sox agreed to a three-year deal, worth $55.5 million. The contract also has a fourth-year option that comes with $18.5 million in compensation for the 31-year-old left-hander.

Keuchel was a free agent prior to the 2019 MLB season as well but opted to wait deep into the year in order to sign with a playoff team. He ended up getting a one-year deal, worth $13 million from Atlanta Braves.

Keuchel ended up playing 19 games in the regular season, having an 8-8 record with a 3.75 ERA and 91 strikeouts. He also helped the Braves advance to the National League Divisional Series, where they lost to St. Louis Cardinals.

Before signing Dallas Keuchel, White Sox brought in All-Star catcher Yasmani Grandal, outfielder Nomar Mazara, catcher James McCann, and pitcher Gio Gonzalez. The team also inked All-Star first baseman Jose Abreu to an extension.

If there’s any competing team in baseball that needs starting pitching help, it’s the Atlanta Braves. According to MLB sources, they are looking to add free agent starting pitcher Dallas Keuchel in order to boost one of the weak points of their roster.

MLB.com reporter Mark Feinsand broke the news on Thursday that Atlanta is looking to lock up the lefty starter.

Keuchel, who spent the first seven years of his career with the Houston Astros, hit free agency last off-season and has yet to sign a deal despite being one of baseball’s most decorated starting pitchers over the past several years.

The Astros offered Keuchel a qualifying offer, which meant that any team that signed the Arkansas alum before the MLB Draft would be forced to give up their first round pick for him.

Since no teams wanted to do so, he’s had to wait until now to find suitors.

Keuchel, who is now 31 years old, has an impressive pitching resume. The lefty made two All-Star teams with the Astros and helped lead the franchise to their first ever World Series title in 2017.

All in all, the ground ball-inducing starter recorded a 76-63 record and a 3.77 ERA in his years with the AL West club.

Atlanta, currently with a 33-30 record and two games behind the Phillies in the NL East, needs pitching help if they are to be serious contenders this year.

For this reason, they appear to be making a push for the lefty starter in what could end up being a perfect marriage.
