  1. Now I feel bad for being too negative. How about naming Sox players who maybe were not the best but you just liked for some reason. I have quite a few of those, but I'll still name a few.... Tim Hulett, Craig Grebeck, Don Pall, Darren Lewis.
  2. Don't forget the lengendary White Sox careers of George Foster and Steve Carlton.
  3. I wish I could remember the name of the relief pitcher that goes with the following story....I was at a not very crowded game with my wife years ago and the Sox were getting pummeled and the bullpen started to stir. I saw who got up to warm and said "Oh No". My wife said it couldn't get much worse and I said "wanna bet?" Anyways he warmed up for awhile and we were down the left field line far enough that we heard the bullpen phone ring. Someone else in the crowd yelled "DON'T PICK IT UP!!"
  4. Tomorrow's list will be 25 since there are so many "popular" choices.
  5. I remember liking Ralph Garr. Don't remember much about Claudell. It looks like he did die at the young age of 65 in 2020 after a battle with cancer. That sucks.
  6. He also is the reason why we had Leury Garcia if that weighs on your decision
  7. I once heard it described this way....the White Sox replaced Jose Valentin, a guy who would run through a wall for his teammates, at SS with Royce Clayton, a guy who would complain "who put this wall here?!?"
  8. You have been reported to Christine O'Reilly.
  9. Yes, Ralph Garr. Thank you. My apologies for mis-nicknaming Mr Washington.
  10. As the OP I'd like to quote Terence Mann......There are rules here? No, there are no rules here.
  11. That was the oddest feeling leaving the stadium that night. Even though the Sox won the game, the mood among the fans was deflating.
  12. Oops....I hope I didn't distract Getzy from his job of adding guys to add to this list.
  13. I was in the upper deck at that Paniagua game....I treat him as more of an urban legend. I almost bought his game worn jersey at Soxfest just to see the reaction when I wore it to a game, but it was more than $5.
  14. I just didn't like him as a player, in interviews, as a coach with the Cubbies. I just thought the guy was hugely overrated and never cared for him.
  15. You can do an honorable mentions section like @Bob Sacamano.....and I see Bob's additional list keeps growing, haha.
  16. Can we throw in Jon, running in quick sand, Jay?
  17. Every game I attended in person with Joey Cora in a White Sox uniform....every one....he did something either stupid or made an error at a key time in the game or failed miserably at the plate. I'm more of a Durham/Iguchi/Bernazard guy myself. Also loved Jorge Orta. But I will not argue with you that I am one of the best.
  18. I believe his nickname was The Road Runner? I seem to remember Harry or Jimmy saying meep meep when he ran down the 1B line. Anyway, I saw in his obituary from 2020 that he was a 5 tool OF!!
  19. Got a bunch of daisy dukes from Temu on my feed
  20. Name your personal top 10 and all is forgiven
  21. I maybe should have just automatically included Wells and Swisher on a master list and had people name 8 more.
  22. KEEP BRETT LILLIBRIDGE OUT OF YOUR F....ING MOUTH!!!!!
