Robert Murray, formerly of The Athletic, first had the news of a contract between Gonzalez and the White Sox early Thursday afternoon, which was later confirmed by MLB Network’s Jon Heyman. In 2004, the White Sox drafted Gonzalez 38th overall, and the following year included him in the trade that brought Hall-of-Famer Jim Thome to Chicago. And then in December 2006, Gonzalez was traded back to the White Sox with Gavin Floyd in exchange for Freddy Garcia. In January 2008, the White Sox shipped Gonzalez to the Athletics, where he would debut in the majors later that year. The White Sox may still add to their rotation further, even after signing Gonzalez.
