May 13, 200520 yr c'mon what's with you 3 not even giving Maggs a dishonorable mention? even though the separation was somewhat ugly, he still gave us 6 damn good years.
May 13, 200520 yr 1. Frank Thomas 2. Freddy Garcia 3. Robin Ventura 4. Joe Crede 5. Harold Baines 6. Mark Buehrle 7. Bo Jackson 8. Keith Foulke 9. Carlos Lee 10. Paul Konerko One guy I am very fond of right now is AJ Pierzynski... Its like the Dennis Rodman factor all over again.
May 13, 200520 yr Top Five from the go go era 1951-1967 1. Billy Pierce 2. Minnie Minoso 3. Nellie Fox 4. Floyd Robinson 5. Gary Peters Top Five post go go 1968 to present 1. Frank Thomas 2. Robin Ventura 3. Dick Allen 4. Wilbur Wood 5. Keith Foulke Top Five old timers (for me anyway) 1. Ed Walsh 2. Ray Schalk 3. Willie Kamm 4. Buck Weaver 5. Zeke Bonura Numerous others deserve honorable mention. A certain unnamed outfielder from the Detroit Tigers lost his place in my own personal White Sox Hall of Honor. In the meantime keep it up 2005 White Sox. Make history. Why not us? Edited May 13, 200520 yr by Yossarian
May 13, 200520 yr Author c'mon what's with you 3 not even giving Maggs a dishonorable mention? even though the separation was somewhat ugly, he still gave us 6 damn good years. O_O Now that I think about it, I lost interest in the Sox before last season. I didn't watch many games for a long period of time. I had no idea Maggs was with the Sox so long........ (Just so you guys know, now I am a die-hard Sox fan, more a fan now than I ever have been, and it's gonna stay that way. GO SOX!) Edited May 13, 200520 yr by TheBigHurt

May 14, 200520 yr Ken Berry Dick Allen Bill Melton Gary Peters Oscar Gamble Walt Williams Big Frank Mark Buehrle Smokey Burgess
May 14, 200520 yr My top few are kind of tough. Maggs definitely lost some points because of his ugly departure. He was basically an unquestioned #1 at this time last year. 1) "Shoeless" Joe Jackson- great player that probably got a raw deal 2) The Big Hurt- Was the man in the early 90's when I was growing up 3) Maggs- I really liked him when he was on the Sox. A quiet, unassuming guy with a ton of talent that was really underrated. Too bad everything went so wrong. 4) Buehrle 5) El Caballo 6) Garland- always been a fan, even through the frustrating moments 7) Mike Cameron- not sure why, but I liked him a lot as a kid 8) Jason Bere- my Dad and I really got to like him during that 93-94 stretch 9) Jack McDowell- was solid for the Sox, but was never really a personal favorite 10) Ventura- same as above.
May 14, 200520 yr 5&10 guys? That's easy: Frank Thomas. He's the only guy on the squad whose been on the team for 5 yrs, & in the league for 10.
May 14, 200520 yr Carlton Fisk Luis Aparicio Gary Peters Dick Allen Bill Melton Frank Thomas Robin Ventura Hoyt Wilhelm Jack McDowell Ken Berry That's 10 off the top of my head. I didn't give it all that much thought.
