The White Sox continue to make moves in the early off season. The signing of 35 year old Adam LaRoche to a two year contract helps replace the Adam Dunn/Paul Konerko DH production, and gives the team flexibility at first base to rest Jose Abreu.
LaRoche hit .259 BA, 26 HR, 92 RBI for the Nationals in 2014. He had a 2.2 WAR.
GM Rick Hahn continues to follow a common sense approach to filling his roster. He needed to shore up the bullpen so he signed Zach Duke. He needed to find a new DH, so he signed a proven hitter in LaRoche.
The possible other areas needing an upgrade include catcher, another reliever, and possible LF candidate. A right handed starter seems to be on everyone's wish list, but the White Sox are one team not too concerned about having a heavy left handed rotation.
