Dan Jennings ($1.4M), Jake Petricka ($825,000) agree with White Sox

Relief pitcher Dan Jennings agreed to a $1.4 million, one-year contract with the Chicago White Sox, and right-hander Jake Petricka struck an $825,000, one-year deal.

The agreements Thursday avoided salary arbitration.

Jennings made a career-high 64 appearances last season in his second season with the White Sox, going 4-3 with a 2.08 ERA. His 46 strikeouts matched a personal best set in 2015. Eligible for arbitration for the first time last year, he made $810,000.

Petricka made nine relief appearances last season before season-ending surgery on his right hip. He made $535,000.
