At first I thought this was a joke because the first page was Big Frank and then when I clicked next it jumped to Ray Durham...

I did that exact same thing, and I thought NO WAY is Ray #2.

Thigpen deserves to be higher on the list.

Harold is 12th?!? I have no idea who this Mark Potash character is but it's amazing he's made it this far in life with his head stuck so far up his own ass.

I can't believe they left future Hall of Famer Alexei Ramirez off the list!

I don't know about Keyser's opinion, but on Reinsdorf's list, he's #1.

If he stays healthy and with the Sox for an extended time, he will be in the top 10 when he is done.

After looking at this list of amazing legends of the game, I am shocked that this franchise has not won more World Series titles.

Who would win a seven (7) game series between the all-time top twenty (20) players for the Chicago White Sox and the all-time top twenty (20) players for the Toledo Mudhens? My guess is that Minnie Minoso and Luke Appling make the difference and the White Sox win game 7.

Help an outsider: why is Harold Baines revered as a demi-god by the organization and fans?

Your answer lies in a close examination of the remaining 49 players on the above referenced list. For Heaven's sake, Dick Allen, who played THREE seasons with the team, is thought of by at least one individual as the SIXTH best player in team history!
