CHICAGO — The Chicago White Sox and All-Star right-handed pitcher Lance Lynn have agreed to terms on a two-year, $38-million contract extension, which includes a club option for the 2024 season.
Under terms of the extension, Lynn will receive $18.5 million in both 2022 and 2023, with the White Sox holding an $18-million option for 2024 with a $1-million buyout.
Lynn, 34, has gone 9–3 with a 1.99 ERA (20 ER/90.2 IP) and 105 strikeouts over 16 starts this season, his first with the Sox after being acquired from Texas on December 8, 2020 in exchange for right-hander Dane Dunning and lefty Avery Weems.
