Chavis signed a minor-league contract with the White Sox on Wednesday, Jesse Rogers of ESPN.com reports.
Chavis inked an MiLB deal with the Mariners during the offseason and spent the first several months of the year with Triple-A Tacoma, slashing .290/.366/.485 with 29 RBI across 191 plate appearances. He opted out of his deal with Seattle on June 1 and will now look to carve out a role for himself with the White Sox. The 28-year-old has experience covering every base as well as in left field, and he could join the big-league club at some point if his bat remains hot at Triple-A Charlotte.
