The Chicago White Sox have reportedly reached an agreement with right-handed relief pitcher Seranthony Dominguez on a two-year contract valued at $20 million, according to multiple sources. The deal is said to include a mutual option for a third season.
Dominguez, 31, brings experience and power to the White Sox bullpen. A native of the Dominican Republic, he spent his entire Major League career prior to this reported signing with the Philadelphia Phillies. Known for an electric fastball and a solid breaking ball, Dominguez has been a reliable late-inning option when healthy.
After debuting in 2018, Dominguez quickly earned a role in high-leverage situations with Philadelphia. Despite missing extended time due to injuries, including undergoing Tommy John surgery in 2020, he returned to contribute meaningfully in subsequent seasons. In 2022 and 2023, he logged significant innings, demonstrating flashes of his early-career form.
Dominguez’s addition addresses a key need for the White Sox, who are aiming to stabilize their bullpen during a transitional period for the franchise. The team had seen turnover in its relief corps in recent seasons and had been in the market for experienced arms capable of handling late-inning situations.
The reported terms of the deal reflect Dominguez’s upside and the potential value he can bring if he remains healthy. The mutual option for a third year gives both sides flexibility going forward.
As of now, the club has not officially announced the agreement, and terms are yet to be confirmed publicly. Pending a physical, Dominguez would join a White Sox bullpen that includes a mix of youth and veteran presence as the team continues to shape its roster ahead of spring training.
Further details, including the specific financial breakdown of the contract and option year, are expected to be released upon the team’s formal confirmation.
