southsider2k5 Posted August 24, 2015 Share Posted August 24, 2015 This article kind of sucked, as it went with AJ. I'd be curious who everyone else would pick. For me Jaime Navarro tops the list. http://www.rantsports.com/mlb/2015/07/25/t...medium=referral Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dick Allen Posted August 24, 2015 Share Posted August 24, 2015 (edited) For me it's Navarro in a runaway. He actually once complained about run support after a game he allowed 9 earned. One guy who is up there at least if you are talking home fans, Claudell Washington. Opposing fans, Albert Belle can hang with AJ, but it was only 2 years. Other than that, nothing since I have been following is even close. Edited August 24, 2015 by Dick Allen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Other teams? Okay, maybe AJ. But by Sox fans? Not even close. And I'm with Dick - Navarro. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian Posted August 24, 2015 Share Posted August 24, 2015 I'll pile on Jamie Navarro Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lip Man 1 Posted August 24, 2015 Share Posted August 24, 2015 (edited) I remember the banner in the outfield, "Washington slept here..." Navarro was pretty disliked and let's not forget Adam Dunn after he publicly told the media that he rarely worked out in the off season (this after having perhaps the worst season statistically in MLB in almost 100 years.) A.J. was loved by Sox fans for his spirit and the fact that he was a damn fine catcher. Article is obviously written by someone who knows very little about the Sox.

I was feeling like he and Royce Clayton deserved to be mentioned somewhere in the thread but didn't want to disrupt the obviously deserved unanimous votes.

BlackSox13 Posted August 24, 2015 Share Posted August 24, 2015 AJ? That's just laughable. Navarro would be my choice with Joey Belle my second. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chisoxfn Posted August 24, 2015 Share Posted August 24, 2015 Navarro and Dunn would be pretty high up there. Dunn for his performance (combined with his contract) vs. attitude. Navarro for combination of the two. Albert Belle and AJ are the two that make the list if you are looking from opposition perspective (AJ winning).

bmags Posted August 24, 2015 Share Posted August 24, 2015 Just hated the Brett Myers trade, don't care if he didn't do anything as a sox, just hate the guy. Does manager count? Man I hated Bevington. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LDF Posted August 24, 2015 Share Posted August 24, 2015 2 of the biggest dick i have seen on the sox, 1 i witness his "get lost kid" when the youngster wanted a autograph. that was Belle. the other is Royce Clayton, the same one when in spring training no one wanted to sit with him at a table.

Lip Man 1 Posted August 24, 2015 Share Posted August 24, 2015 (edited) Making matters even more galling for Sox fans about Wells and Swisher was the fact that as soon as they left the team they started putting up good numbers again. Remember the time Clayton showed up dressed for a game in tennis shoes? Wouldn't put on his spikes??? LOL. Jerry Manuel blew a gasket over that one.

greg775 Posted August 24, 2015 Share Posted August 24, 2015 Clayton, Rios and Swisher would be right up there. Dunn and LaRoche are right there as well for me. Of course Navarro like many said. Ron Blomberg was a big bust. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I was told a story about Swisher from one of the beat writers. In the second half of 2008 after the Sox got Griffey, he tried to help Swisher who was in a bad slump by offering some hitting tips. Swisher literally blew him off I was told and just ignored him. Mark Edited August 24, 2015 by Lip Man 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
