Chavis signed a minor-league contract with the White Sox on Wednesday, Jesse Rogers of ESPN.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Chavis inked a 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.

EDGE Analysis
Chavis compiled a .242/.281/.341 slash line with five RBI across 96 plate appearances in 2023, and he'll now look to latch on with another organization. With a .650 OPS since 2021, Chavis will likely serve in a bench role with his new team.

Chavis went 2-for-4 in Sunday's win over the A's.
EDGE Analysis
Getting the start at second base and batting eighth, Chavis put together his first multi-hit performance since May 28. The 28-year-old has seen a slight uptick in playing time following Luis Garcia's demotion, appearing in four games so far in August and going 4-for-12 with a walk and a run, but Chavis now sits behind jake Alu on the depth chart and isn't likely to move into a starting role down the stretch.

Chavis went 1-for-1 with a solo home run in Friday's 13-3 loss against the Padres.
EDGE Analysis
Chavis subbed in for left fielder Corey Dickerson in the ninth inning and promptly launched a 378-foot shot to left center for his first homer of the season. The former Red Sock is slashing .262/.311/.333 across just 20 games this year, but it's unclear if he'll get more playing time going forward.

Chavis went 2-for-3 with a walk and an RBI in Sunday's loss to the Royals.
EDGE Analysis
Getting the start at third base and hitting seventh, Chavis delivered his first multi-hit performance of the season and drove in his second run. The 27-year-old has seen little action off the Nationals' bench this season, but over 15 appearances he's batting .290 (9-for-31) while mainly getting used against left-handed pitching.
