Thus ends the most disappointing career of a white sox player I can remember.

Borchard? I believe his bonus was a lot more and he did nothing, except hit the longest HR I've seen in a game at the Cell. Beckham at least brought defense.

Beckham's defense has been poor the last couple years. Borchard never did what Beckham did right after being called up.

Phlegly as DH? :lol:

What's the biggest need of this team? It's the rotation. We may not have the coin to get a quality free agent DH. It might be the most efficient route to go internally.

That's what I mean at least Beckham showed something for a little. Borchard never showed anything in the MLB with more money invested.

 

Beckham's defense wasn't as good lately but earlier he played well.

Mike Caruso.

 

Sammy Sosa.

 

Mike Cameron.

 

Kenny Williams.

Caruse would be there but at least he had 1 really good season.

 

Sosa was a good player.

 

Cameron was just getting good before he was traded for a really good player.

 

KW brought 2005. He had one shining moment.

Considering he was the supposed centerpiece of the entire "White Flag Trade," I'll go with him. He won 1 crosstown game at Wrigley and after that--nuthin'.

Held on too long and ended up giving him away.

Would have liked to seen a trade for someone else's failed top prospect.

 

The utter, and inexplicable, lack of a sense of urgency to deal in July under the vain notion that this team was still in it, will retard this rebuild.
