Flash Tizzle Posted August 14, 2008 Share Posted August 14, 2008 Just based upon the title of this thread: "All Time Worst big-name players of the Sox history -- Their name outplayed their game," Griffey may have a permanent OF spot awaiting him on the original list. Look at his career, what he once was, what we expected (not MVP calibur numbers, but certaintly not what he's producing right now), and tell me that doesn't fit the discription. He fits the bill perfectly. Admit it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
earthshiner Posted August 14, 2008 Share Posted August 14, 2008 QUOTE (bighurt4life @ Aug 13, 2008 -> 11:42 PM) What about Crazy Carl? He was a pretty big name and never really did much with us. him and pods were pretty much our offense the first half of 05 until Konerko and Dye finally remembered they were allowed to use bats.

Drew Posted August 14, 2008 Share Posted August 14, 2008 Two words: Cory Snyder. Put up stud numbers in Cleveland, lasted 50 games with us and not even getting to the Mendoza line. It could be argued that he was a flash in the pan after his first three seasons. I remember watching him slide to catch a ball in LF, which he missed, and then got up to look at his hand before locating the ball and getting it back into the infield.

YASNY Posted August 14, 2008 Share Posted August 14, 2008 Man I got one for the list. Tommy Davis. We traded Tommie Agee to the Mets for him and he was terrible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Texsox Posted August 14, 2008 Share Posted August 14, 2008 QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Aug 14, 2008 -> 08:22 AM) That's just wrong... It should be last leg. Glad someone mentioned Dibble. But that felt more injury related. Sandy Alomar's inclusion on the list seems more a testiment that we haven't really had too many problems at catcher. Unless we were expecting a younger Alomar.

GreatScott82 Posted August 14, 2008 Share Posted August 14, 2008 As a kid in the late 80's to mid 90's I would have to say: Steve Sax George Bell Mike Carruso David Wells Ben Wallace (do the Bulls count ) Robby Alomar Sandy Alomar Darin Erstad John Kruk lol didnt he quite because it was too hot or something? There we a lot who had career downspirals after a year or 2: Albert Belle had one monster year with us,but quickly fell off. Jose Valentin had an amazing 2000, but just wasnt the same after that. Pretty much all of the 2000 white sox: many had career years such as: Herbert Perry, Chris Singleton, Ray Durham, Mike Sirotka, Jim Parque, James Baldwin etc....

Brian Posted August 14, 2008 Share Posted August 14, 2008 Easily Cory Snyder. Everytime that guy came up it was an easy out. David Wells is on there. I don't care what anyone says, I liked having Canseco for those few months. It was exciting when he came up to bat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nitetrain8601 Posted August 14, 2008 Share Posted August 14, 2008 Bart Colon and David Wells would always stick out in my eyes. Boomer was cool and I was fine with his personality, but the fact that he kept getting injured in a year we were supposed to compete for a title just made me shake my head. Bart was an ok guy, but everyone made it seem like he would be a Cy Young award winner for sure. That's what I was expecting, but to me he was just a solid starter.
