The White Sox have signed reliever Kelvin Herrera to a two-year deal worth $18M. (@WhiteSox)

Fantasy Impact:

Herrera has spent most of his career with the Kansas City Royals, where he appeared in a career high 76 games in 2012. He also recorded 52 saves over the last three seasons. Herrera appeared in 21 games with the Nationals last season, but struggled with them as his 4.34 ERA would suggest. Herrera gives the White Sox another option deep in games, and if he assumes closing duties, he'll become very valuable for fantasy purposes. He may have to overcome the likes of Jace Fry and Nate Jones first, but he undoubtably gives the White Sox bullpen some more depth.
