Historic WS FA Signings

He whipped the Sox asses everytime he saw us at the end of the year.

I must have been vegetating, because I never noticed.

 

Then again, my White Sox morale was at an all-time low during the second half of last year for a gang of reasons, primarily the USCF hitting conditions. I don't think that I caught even one game during the month of September.

Best trades...

 

Lamar Hoyt for Ozzie Guillen.

 

It was almost like the White Sox knew something about Lamar.  It was perfect timing.  Hoyt's career was imploding and Ozzie's was just starting.

 

QUIZ:  Who's the White Sox scout who's often given credit for finding Ozzie Guillen?

Quiz answer: Jack Mckeon

 

 

Ooops sorry i was thinking the scout who signed Ozzie. :bang

The Bartolo Colon trade was a very good one, even if the Sox didn't pan out. He came in and did what was expected of him.

 

The Damaso Marte deal was a very good one too in recent years.

 

FA wise, Elo was fantastic and Bobby Jenks could be a big reward type of move.

Julio Franco was a good FA signing.

 

I loved Julio Franco. An outstanding DH for us.

 

 

Darrin Jackson's signing has cost us all into the present day. puke.gif

 

I'm guessing your talking about DJ as an announcer, he was real solid as a ballplayer for us.

He got a minor league deal, and posted an ERA of 1.93 in April.

 

The worst IS Jaime Navarro because Reinsdorf has to think 352,837 times before giving a starting pitcher a long term deal.

I know, it does not really bother me that much. But he did blow and no one can say otherwise.

Julio Franco was a good FA signing.

 

Chris Sabo and Mike Devereaux were bad. Sabo being horrible.

 

Danny Tartabull wasn't that bad as a FA signing either.

I agree on Franco. Still pissed he wasn't brought back for 1995

 

Devereaux hit .300 for us, played well. Tartabull was a good risk, Sabo Sucked
