The White Sox decided to move on from Avisail Garcia, opting not to tender a contract to their right fielder of the past six seasons.
So there’s now a pretty big hole in the White Sox starting lineup.
Losing Garcia does not mean the South Siders are losing a ton of production. During an injury-ravaged 2018 campaign, Garcia’s numbers plummeted from his All-Star season just a year earlier, and he finished with a .236/.281/.438 slash line in 93 games.
But the internal options to replace him are not too appealing from a statistical standpoint, either.
