With the White Sox officially announcing the signing of Liam Hendriks, the righty reliever becomes one of the higher-paid free agents in franchise history slotting into seventh place. While fans have yet to see a $100+ million contract (and it would seem we shouldn't hold our breath on that anytime soon, Zack Wheeler notwithstanding), three of the top-seven signings have come over the past two offseasons. Progress, however small it might be. (But as Jim noted, we're still looking at water towers)
At any rate, today's Sporcle asks you to remember the top free agent contracts in White Sox history: no extensions included. In all, there are 35 names: how many can you get? Good luck!
