MLB: White Sox sign Keppinger, fill hole at third
General manager Rick Hahn completed his second major step Wednesday in stabilizing the White Sox when free agent Jeff Keppinger agreed to a 3-year, $12 million contract.
Keppinger, 32, is an exceptional contact hitter who batted .325 with the Rays but is recovering from a broken right fibula. The deal will be formalized once he passes a physical.
The expectation is Keppinger will be ready by the start of spring training without any limitations.
