July 6, 200817 yr I'm sure this thread has existed plenty before but if anyone wants to offer some other possibilities let me know and wow, he finished way too low in MVP voting that year ( http://www.baseball-reference.com/awards/awards_1998.shtml ). Roidness not withstanding.
July 6, 200817 yr Its hard to beat. Thomas in 2000 was pretty great too. He got screwed out of a mvp that year by HGH man Giambi.
July 6, 200817 yr There's no way Thomas's 1994 is not the greatest season in the history of the White Sox. He had an OPS of like 1.200, and other than basically Bonds and Ruth, it's one of the greatest OPS's of all time.

Yeah, 18th highest of all time, but looking at the names above him, its pretty damn good... http://www.baseball-reference.com/leaders/OPS_season.shtml
July 6, 200817 yr Thomas's 1996 and 1997 seasons were better too even though 152 RBI's by Belle is really impressive Edited July 6, 200817 yr by mr_genius
July 6, 200817 yr He had great numbers, but nobody hit better than Belle when it didn't matter. I would definitely say Thomas' season was better. Also, Belle was voted 8th in the AL MVP, so it would be sad if that was the Sox best season ever.
