The Worst White Sox Players Of My Lifetime: Position Players Edition

Image
While the entire White Sox fan base sits around waiting for something to happen with Yoenis Cespedes , I figured I'd help us all kill time by continuing what I started last week. If you don't remember, I ranked the greatest White Sox players of my lifetime (by bWAR) in two separate posts; one for position players and one for pitchers. Well, for every yin there must be a yang, and for every Frank Thomas there must be an Adam Dunn .

I didn't originally plan on nearly a week passing between my Worst White Sox Position Players post and the pitcher's version going up, but, hey, sometimes life just works out that way. Fret no longer, though, my friends, for the list is finally here. The worst White Sox pitchers of my lifetime (1981-present) ranked! In order! By bWAR! Relive the terrible memories of hanging curveballs, and 8-1 losses. These were the pitchers who strengthened your resolve as a White Sox fan, and helped mold you into the strong, loyal fan that you are today. Now is the time to give them your thanks.
