Chicago White Sox all-time batting order (MLB starting lineup)

[kingcoach13]

you can't even get the players in their correct positions! sheeeeeesh.minos is the greatest lf ever for sox. baines never played lf. he was a terrible rf put him at dh if anwyhere. jim landis was the greatest cf ever.. bat notwithstanding. any all time squad without sholess joe is a fraud. no aparicio, luke appling instead. no ventura, jackson at 3B.

[kingcoach13]

whodafuk is luke aparicio?!?i know LUKE APPLING,i know LUIS APARICIO, but never a LUKE APARICIO.get a clue. incidentally luke appling was a dynamite hitter. FAR superior to aparicio.at the '83 all-star game,appling hit a HR in the oldtimers game. he was 76 YEARS OLD (that's seventy-six) yes, i saw it.yes it went over the wall in left field, about 375 feet. yes it really happened.

Most Underrated Sox player... Pat Kelly.

@JohnnyStorm2007 richie allen

[JohnnyStorm2007]

Here's mine: SS Bucky Dent 2B Jorge Orta 3B Bill Melton 1B Dick Allen LF Ralph Garr CF Chet Lemon RF Ritchie Zisk DH Oscar Gamble C Brian Downing. I know yours have better players, but this would be my choice.

[JohnnyStorm2007]

Richie Zisk?

[rolands59]

No problem with Ventura over Beltin Bill Melton, but no way you leave out the greatest White Sox there's ever been, Shoeless Joe Jackson!!

[ThePhilliesforlife]

where is shoeless joe

[MrCapinver]

sox's suck !!!! GO CUBS GO.

[ThePhilliesforlife]

@MrCapinver ya the cubs are so good even though they are the least succesful sports team in the last 103 years

[badbreven]

actully its Luis Aparicio not Luke Aparicio

[shibopshibop]

This is tough.......I'd like to have seen Luke Appling and Bill Melton here.

[pinchcrab]

Since Konerko is still on the team should it be 1999- ?

[bigfishcatcherdw]

LOUIS Aparicio , not Luke

[md4bush]

Shoeless Joe? Dick Allen? Bill Melton?

[OPSportsInc]

Perhaps I should have made room for Joe Jackson and left Fielder Jones out. You might have a point with that one. Dick Allen's claim to fame came with his time as a Phillie even though he had some solid years with the White Sox.

[md4bush]

I can see excluding Joe for his 1919 Black Sox scandal like Eddie Ciocotte. Bill Melton was the first Sox to hit 30 homers and led the league. Ventura had a longer career but Melton should get his dues. Konerko was part of the Championship so that's fine. Fisk I have no problem with but he is arguably known as a Red Sox. Hall of Famer Ray Schalk has a case for catcher.

[johnnybannas1990]

luis aparicio not luke

[kingcoach13]

@md4bush carleton fisk played more games for the white sox, hit more HR for the white sox than he did for the red sox. he would have wanted to be inducted as a white sox if "alligator arms jerry" hadn't refused to pay his airfare back to chicago after releasing him on the road his last year.reinsdork can be a smallminded weenie over some perceived insult to his manhood or something equally as silly.

[loyaldude10]

@OPSportsInc --I only recall the 72 season being big for Allen with the Sox. He was an absolute monster of a hitter, but he was his own worst enemy. And BTW---it was Luis Apraricio, not Luke (I think there was a ss named Luke Appling in early 20th century)

[kingcoach13]

@loyaldude10 luke appling was the GREATEST SS in sox history.played 20 years,lifetime 2700H .310BA .399OBP(!)won 2 batting titles,one OBP title 13 time all star.hit a 375 foot HR at the 1983 all star old timers game..WHEN HE WAS 76 YEARS OLD. true. think a little more about LUKE APPLING. he was in fact the greatest

[kingcoach13]

@OPSportsInc solid year?please .308 led league in ALL these categories:37HR 113RBI .420OBP 1.23OPS .603 SLUG i saw him hit HR over the bullpen into the gap between the cf & rf stands one night.my girlfriend & i were shouting in each other's ear,couldn't hear each other.the crowd loved richie more than ANY other player i ever saw at comiskey from minnie minoso in '54 to the end of this last season.the man was more than qualified. he was as good as any player i ever saw.richie was the man
