Mike Tauchman Injury: Let go by White Sox

The White Sox did not tender Tauchman (knee) a contract for 2026 on Friday, making him a free agent.

The veteran outfielder had a .756 OPS and nine homers for Chicago last season, but he was limited to 93 games due to injuries. Tauchman has a .740 OPS across the past three seasons and should be able to land a big-league contract for 2026, though he's likely best suited as more of a No. 4 outfielder.
