Yes, we know that this is taking a while!
As many of you know, we here at Notinhalloffame.com are slowly generating the 50 of each major North American sports team. That being said, we have existing Top 50 lists out and we always consistently look to update them when we can and based on necessity. As such, we are very happy to present our post-2021 revision of our top 50 Chicago White Sox.
As for all of our top 50 players in baseball we look at the following:
1. Advanced Statistics.
2. Traditional statistics and how they finished in the American League.
3. Playoff accomplishments.
4. Their overall impact on the team and other intangibles not reflected in a stat sheet.
Last year, Chicago made it to the playoffs but were unable to get past Houston in the Divisional round. We have one significant jump in the rankings, and one new entry.
As always, we present our top five, though there were no changes.
1. Frank Thomas
2. Ed Walsh
3. Luke Appling
4. Ted Lyons
5. Red Faber
You can find the entire list here.
Current White Sox star, Jose Abreu, climbed to #20 from #17.
Shortstop, Tim Anderson, debuts at #50.
We welcome your input and comments and as always, we thank you for your support.
