Quin Posted January 10 Share Posted January 10 3 hours ago, wegner said: Scheduled Attendees 2005 World Series team Mark Buehrle*, José Contreras and Freddy García Former White Sox players Harold Baines Current White Sox players Brooks Baldwin, Sean Burke, Jonathan Cannon, Korey Lee, Bryan Ramos, Mike Tauchman, Drew Thorpe, Miguel Vargas, Gus Varland and Andrew Vaughn White Sox prospects Chase Meidroth, Braden Montgomery, Colson Montgomery, Edgar Quero, Noah Schultz, Hagen Smith, Kyle Teel and George Wolkow *Mark Buehrle in attendance on Friday, January 24 only The fact that they can't get ANY former players outside of Harold and those 3 (which are a good three) is so, so sad. For f***'s sake, Ozzie, Beckham, Pods and Frank are on the team payroll. Colson Montgomery and Noah Schultz will have to carry the entirety of SoxFest on their shoulders, because I don't think the other prospects will have endeared themselves at all to fans since their rises were during last year's horror show. 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I dunno, it seems like a pretty good lineup. Who actually wants Ozzie? He might spit on me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Highland Posted January 10 Share Posted January 10 Only three from the World Series is a shame, but it is not surprising. I would never expect Ozzie come, 2005 is fading away. Of course, younger fans know nothing about it. The record losing season is overshadowing everything. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn't mind getting a picture with Wolcow just because I'd look like a child next to him...a balding child that is.

The guy does the postgame show, along with Frank and Podsednik. Pretty sad that the Sox couldn’t get them to go. Hell, they couldn’t even get Bacon to go.

tray Posted January 11 Share Posted January 11 (edited) I have seen all of the ex-Sox players over the years so I am more excited about seeing some of the prospects for the first time. I hope Wolkow goes. That would be awesome. Edited January 11 by tray Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tray Posted January 12 Share Posted January 12 I was wondering if he will be there on Saturday, that is all.. He is a local kid that I have been excited to have as part of the WSox org. and hope to meet him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just assumed by reading the release that everyone listed would be attending both days of SoxFest, considering there is a footnote that says only Buehrle will be attending the first day and not Saturday.

Having to defend low turnout from 2005 WS guys, Robert, Benintendi...they did get all their key players from the Crochet trade and the majority of top prospects at least.
