Andrus was released by the Oakland Athletics on Wednesday, sending him into free agency. He was on a one-year deal worth around $6 million.
The Sox are in dire need of infield help. With injuries to Tim Anderson, Leury García and Danny Mendick, the team is low on shortstops.
Andrus is slashing .237/.301/.373 from the plate with eight home runs and 30 RBIs this season.
