Thoughts on the Nate Jones signing

As is typical for the White Sox, rather than actually go to arbitration, the Sox signed Nate Jones for next season. Unlike most of the recent arbitration signings, they extended their control on Nate Jones, including options, for six more seasons.

In the guaranteed seasons, Nate Jones will be getting $900k and $1.9 million in his last two arbitration years and $3.95 million in his first season of free agency. There are two additional club option seasons of $4.65 million and $5.15 million (with a $1.25 million buyout for either of theses) and a $6 million mutual option in 2021.
