Rest-of-Season Projections
The White Sox have requested release waivers on Keppinger, Colleen Kane of the Chicago Tribune reports.
ANALYSIS
Chicago previously designated Keppinger for assignment last week, but with no other teams willing to assume the remaining two years on his contract, he'll be unceremoniously let go. Keppinger's ability to play multiple positions across the infield might still allow him to land a 40-man roster spot for another team, but he doesn't seem to provide much upside with the bat at this stage in his career.

Keppinger was one of the biggest disappointments of last offseason. The White Sox signed him to a three-year, $12 million contract to serve as their primary third baseman. Instead, he struggled with back issues and struggled to hit .250 for the season. He remains the light-hitting contact hitter of seasons past, but his .332 BABIP from 2012 fell to .269 in 2013. Keppinger's contract will keep him on the roster, but don't be surprised if he falls into more of a utility role following the addition of Matt Davidson.
