The White Sox have just signed Mark Teahen to a three year, $14 million contract.

I just have one question: Why? Teahen owns a career .749 OPS (slightly worse the last two years), is 28 years old and unlikely to get much better all of a sudden. That's all fine if he plays second, but the White Sox have him listed as a third baseman and allegedly plan to play him at first. Can they not find someone who is better and costs less? I mean Teahen is pretty much a replacement level player at the corners. This is beyond me.
