Follow usThe Chicago White Sox have signed veteran Stephen Piscotty to a minor league contract, the team announced on Saturday before their game against Tampa Bay Rays.
Piscotty has spent 8 years at the MLB in three different clubs – St. Louis Cardinals (2015-2017), Oakland Athletics (2018-2022) and a very brief spell with San Francisco Giants, who bought him in February, but subsequently released him on March 29.
The 32-year old has a .255 batting average and .324 on-base-percentage, with 93 homers and 354 RBIs in 726 appearances in the MLB.
Last year Piscotty hit .190 with five homers and 14 RBIs with Oakland in 42 outings.
He helped Oakland reach the playoffs in 2018 after a three year drought. They released him last August to give young prospect Shea Langeliers a chance to shine.
