Chicago White Sox trade OF Eloy Jiménez to Baltimore Orioles
The Orioles acquired outfielder Eloy Jiménez from the Chicago White Sox on Tuesday for minor league left-hander Trey McGough. The 27-year-old Jiménez is hitting .240 with just five home runs and 16 RBIs this season. He's been limited to 65 games in 2024 because of adductor and hamstring issues after reaching double figures in homers each of his first five seasons.
In his debut season of 2019, Jiménez hit 31 home runs, but he's never played more than the 122 games he did that year and hasn't surpassed 18 homers since.Before he'd even played a game in the majors, Chicago signed Jiménez to a $43 million, six-year deal. That contract includes a $16.5 million team option for 2025 with a $3 million buyout, and an $18.5 million team option for 2026, also with a $3 million buyout.
