Report: Yoan Moncada Agrees to Five-Year, $70 Million Extension with White Sox

Third baseman Yoan Moncada has agreed to a five-year, $70 million extension with the White Sox, according to The Athletic's Ken Rosenthal.

The deal includes a club option and would potentially buy out two of his free-agent years. If Chicago exercises the option, it can bring the deal's total to $90 million, reports Rosenthal.

Last season, Moncada had a breakout year, hitting .315/.367/.548 with 25 home runs and 79 RBIs while transitioning to playing third.

With an extension, he'd join a group of players in recent years that the White Sox have locked down long-term.
