My favorite, despite the screen name, is Mike Squires. He was the reason I watched the Sox. I always asked why lefties couldn't play third or catch, and Mike Squires was the first one in a long time who did both. And well, if I remember correctly.

 

Also, Har-old, Black Jack, Greg Walker, Luzinski, Fisk and Thomas.

Considering the fact the White Sox haven't exactly had the most stellar history of all teams, out there, with dozens of Hall of Famers, I was wondering if Mark Buehrle has become your favorite Sox player of all time.

He gets the ball and pitches it w/out bleeping around.

He has a good personality with the media and fans.

He has never been a brat with his contract.

Mark B is creeping into my top five Sox of all time.

Dick "don't call me Richie" Allen.

My first favorite Sox player and my all-time favorite Sox player.

Always was, always will be.

Probably not the most popular opinion, but I don't think Frank is a HOF.  I think his declining numbers in the past few years hurt his chances.  First 6-7 years - absolute first ballot, but not anymore me thinks.  Still can't wait for him to come back.

 

What part of 10th highest OPS in major league history at the age of 36 doesn't register up there in that dome of yours? :bang

 

Like someone else said, just go away. :)

Been a Sox fan since I can remember, the first time I really remember watching games is the early 90's:

 

My favorites:

 

1) Buehrle, bar none.

2) Ray Durham, as Ray went, so went the Sox.

3) Frank Thomas, as much as I've ripped him for his contract stuff, he was a main reason I loved the Sox when I was 8 years old.

4) Lance Johnson
