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.

Tauchman signed a one-year deal with the White Sox last winter and will again become a free agent after the season.

Brooks Baldwin is covering right field and batting seventh for the White Sox.
