Way past their prime as Pale Hose

If we're doing a list of Sox that are past their prime, I'll contribute:

Kenny Williams and Jerry Reinsdorf.

Linestink was always funny to type and read. 

 

 

From the dinosaur age:

Wilbur Wood, Ron Santo, Don Kessinger, Smokey Burgess, and old aches and pains, Luke Appling, although he could still jack one at 75.

When JR just started

Jim Kern

Sparky Lyle

Jim Kern's injury in '83 was one of the most gruesome moments that I have ever witnessed. Thanks for the memory.

Rocky Colavito in '67 was one of the most gruesome additions to the White Sox that I have ever witnessed.

Carlton Fisk. ;)

Gio Gonzalez :)

White Sox had Wilbur Wood throughout his prime.

I know it is sacrilege to say it, but Bo Jackson.

George Kell.

Cory Snyder

Adam Dunn

Adam Dunn was signed at age 31 with ridiculous OPS numbers every year of his career.  He was not washed up when he was signed but for whatever reason, he fell apart as a hitter when he came to the Sox and the A.L.

Don Kessinger

Ron Santo

I'm surprised we've come this far with nobody mentioning Manny Ramirez. 

EDIT: Just saw the OP. 

 

Also: Bo Jackson

 

David Wells looked washed up when he was here, but found the fountain of youth after leaving.
