WilliamTell Posted May 25, 2005 Share Posted May 25, 2005 I voted for Shoeless Joe although it was more of a pity vote, I wish they'd let him in the Hall of Fame. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shakes Posted May 25, 2005 Share Posted May 25, 2005 Although, I didn't see many of them, I'll go with Frank. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AnthraxFan93 Posted May 25, 2005 Share Posted May 25, 2005 Todd Richie.. W/O a doubt  Frank in his prime was the best we have ever had. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZoomSlowik Posted May 25, 2005 Share Posted May 25, 2005 I voted Frank, but Shoeless Joe might be the right answer. He was a great all-around player, and if not for the 1919 series he might have gone down as one of the all time greats, especially since he was about 31 when he was banned.

Balta1701 Posted May 25, 2005 Share Posted May 25, 2005 I wish I was old enough to have seen some of those guys play. Without that, it's hard to do a fair evaluation. Â Just on total numbers, I'll take Frank's 430 some home runs for the Sox, but I can't say for certain there's never been a better player on that team.

RockRaines Posted May 25, 2005 Share Posted May 25, 2005 Frank, hands down, best hitter in chicago history. In the same sentence stat wise as some of the greats. As far as best player, its debateable, there is more to a player than just hitting, which will also get him in trouble as far as the HOF too.

DABearSoX Posted May 25, 2005 Share Posted May 25, 2005 (edited) No Dick Allen??? I would go with Frank anyway....but I think this is gonna be one sided just because most of us havent seen any of the others play other then Fisk, Thomas, and Baines Edited May 25, 2005 by DABearSoX Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nvxplorer Posted May 26, 2005 Share Posted May 26, 2005 There are many players left out of the poll, so I'll write in Eddie Collins with Ed Walsh as a close second. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cut my teeth in the gawd awful years of '68 through '70.  I turned 10 in Novenber of that year, but I can say for sure that I was a Sox fan as far back as 1964. Probably even earlier, but I can't remember any particular thing that I can pinpoint as earlier that has to do with baseball or the Sox.

Hatchetman Posted May 26, 2005 Share Posted May 26, 2005 eddie collins definitely deserves to be on the poll. we actually have a pretty weak selection given a century of choices. if frank were just a passable 1B, rather than a DH, the choice would be easy.
