Played for the Sox briefly in '86.  Last man to hit 50 HRs in a season before Cecil Fielder.

Ken Hill.

Luis Andujar

or  Liu Rodriguez

 

 

Speaking of Hill, how about Marc Hill.

 

Or from the VERY OBSCURE ... Kelly Paris.

I was just about to post Liu Rodriguez. I remember him being like one of the Sox top prospects in the middle infield when Ray-Ray was still here. Haha.

 

Mark L. Johnson

You are officially eliminated from this game for listing a player that has already been talked about.

I didn't see his name anywhere.

 

You said Mark Johnson.....I said Mark L. Johnson.

We all want to kick the Dybber, just a lot less after the 2005 season.

 

Here's another name.  George Foster.

 

I don't want to kick the Dybber, never did. It wasn't his fault. Greg Fatassinski

contributed his fair share of whiffs, though I don't want to kick his fat ass either.

I'll leave that psycho bulls*** to Cardinal, Cub and Red Sox fans.

 

George Foster was hardly obscure, but I remember him homering in his first

White Sox at-bat, then doing nothing after. Hey, let's go kick his ass, man!

 

Anybody remember Johnny Jeter, Rich Coggins or Luis Alvarado?

You may choose to consult the message board guidelines before venting your anger this way in the future at other members.

Not to forget my favorite hearing Harry say his name (which could be another whole other list...Harry Name Butchery)...

 

Bill Nahorodny

 

I swear to God...I once heard Harry call Chuck McElroy three different names in the same inning.

That would be a good post for us older fans. White Sox names that Harry butchered.

In the late 1980s, could be seen on local TV stations advertising the Stride Trainer, which were pretty much leg irons except made out of plastic and velcro, that one would tie to their ankles while taking batting practice.

Wane Edwards was a valuable Lefty out of the pen . For one season :crying

 

Dany Darwin

Still no one with anything for Salome Barojas? I posted him after answering Joel Skinner (but I see now that it may have looked like I was signing off as "Salome Barojas"). Any way, I followed the rules and answered the previous and then posted one of my own. There are many bending the rules in this game by listing 3 or 4 on one post (name droppin' no doubt), some that aren't even answering a previous post.

Probably too many youngins here to remember Salome... a big time arm out of the 83 pen.

 

How about Billy Joe Robideux

Other than being White Sox players at one time or another, what else do they have in common?

 

The Sox drafted him in the first round twice. May have even been the number 1 pick

Best hockey player to pitch in the Majors, and a super nice guy to boot.

 

Tom Glavine would give him a run for his money.

Donnie Hill.

 

Ken Landreaux from the Dodgers was called him "amphibious" bcause he would take infield alternating which hand he would throw the ball with.
