If there’s an air of disappointment to the impending Seranthony Domínguez signing, well, it’s because it’s a significant signing the White Sox could afford, and when it comes to the White Sox’s version of “ponying up,” you’ll probably have more success betting the under before you even learn the who, what and how much.
More specific to this particular transaction, the Sox have a rich recent history of prioritizing relievers before the more important parts of the team, and the timing of Domínguez signing to a $20 million contract right after the White Sox shed a $20 million salary — even if the 31-year-old right-hander’s money is spread over two years instead of one — made it feel like the White Sox saw it as the superior use of those specific resources.
