CubsSuck1 Posted June 10, 2004 Share Posted June 10, 2004 Mine is definetly Vlad Guerrero. IMO, he is everything you'd want in a superstar player-- a true class act. I was an expos fan when he was there, and now I'm really beginning to become an Angels fan because of him, and just the overall direction of the franchise.

knightni Posted June 10, 2004 Share Posted June 10, 2004 This needs to go in the non Sox sports area... I would have to say Barry Bonds, just because it is a spectacle watching him hit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wong & Owens Posted June 10, 2004 Share Posted June 10, 2004 Jim Thome. No roids, no nutrition "gurus," no 24/7 personal trainer. Eats steak and f***ing eggs for breakfast everyday, grabs a bat, hits .300 with 35 Homers and 100 ribbies then goes out for a few beers afterwards. That's a baseball player.

witesoxfan Posted June 10, 2004 Share Posted June 10, 2004 This needs to go in the non Sox sports area... I would have to say Barry Bonds, just because it is a spectacle watching him hit. Me too. I don't necessarily like the guy, but watching him play is insane. He is dominant. It's like watching the Michael Jordan(in basketball of course) of baseball.

It's like watching the Michael Jordan(in basketball of course) of baseball. Interestingly enough, I'm not really that big of a Jordan fan. I can't stand his ego. I'm indifferent about Bonds.

flippedoutpunk Posted June 10, 2004 Share Posted June 10, 2004 I would have to say Barry Bonds, just because it is a spectacle watching him hit. ^yeah that^ i went to a flubbs game just to see him not play at all. :fyou :puke Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wong & Owens Posted June 10, 2004 Share Posted June 10, 2004 Anyone pitching well against the Cubs Then I'm pretty confident your favorite non-Sox player isn't Danny Haren. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

whitesoxin' Posted June 10, 2004 Share Posted June 10, 2004 Jim Thome. No roids, no nutrition "gurus," no 24/7 personal trainer.

There was a good article about him in ESPN the mag a few weeks ago and it made me like him even more. But, my favorite non-Sox player has to be Melvin Mora. He is a great all around player, outstanding average, good power, good speed, and can play just about every position. Albert Pujols is also high up on that list. Notice most of the guys I like are 5 tool players, not just a slugger. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

southsider2k5 Posted June 10, 2004 Share Posted June 10, 2004 Barry Bonds or Vlad Guerrero, all though Robin Ventura might also qualify if you include ex-Sox players. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whitesoxin' Posted June 10, 2004 Share Posted June 10, 2004 Then I'm pretty confident your favorite non-Sox player isn't Danny Haren. s*** it's 11-0 now. As I type this, Zambrano loses his no-hitter, shutout, ect. on a 2 run homer from Maybery. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CubsSuck1 Posted June 10, 2004 Author Share Posted June 10, 2004 I am also for Juan Pierre and Pujols. I used to like Uribe a lot, too, when he played for the Rockies. Their Pierre/Uribe top of the lineup was awesome. I can see the similarites to our top two of Harris/Uribe. Speed kills. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
