White Sox exercised RHP Gavin Floyd's $9.5 million option for 2013. It was a pretty easy decision. Floyd's ERA has been over 4.00 each of the last four seasons, but he's had nice ratios and has been very durable for the White Sox. Slated to turn 30 in January, Floyd will hope to put up a big year in 2013 before hitting free agency.
