Veteran free-agent left-hander Gio Gonzalez has agreed to a one-year, $5 million deal with the Chicago White Sox, a source confirmed to ESPN's Jeff Passan on Thursday.
Gonzalez will make $4.5 million in 2020 and is guaranteed $500,000 more if the $7 million team option for 2021 isn't picked up by Chicago, the source said.
Gonzalez was drafted by the White Sox with the 38th overall pick in the 2004 MLB draft, but was dealt to the Philadelphia Phillies in 2005 -- as the player to be named later -- in the deal that brought slugger Jim Thome to Chicago.
