CHICAGO — The White Sox declined a $25 million option on third baseman Yoán Moncada after he missed almost the entire season because of a left adductor strain. Chicago also declined a $7.5 million option on catcher Max Stassi. The 29-year-old Moncada gets a $5 million buyout, completing a $70 million, five-year contract. He played in just 12 games this year. Moncada was hurt trying to beat out a grounder at Cleveland on April 9 and did not return until Sept. 18.
