Create A Team For Me
I'm always unsure where to put these types of threads. I want eyes on it and not everyone checks the various dynasty forums.
Help me create a White Sox team Rules 1. White Sox only 1901-2021 2. Player comes in at year he 1st appeared with white Sox, Rookies will have minor league deal, all others whatever contract OOTP gives them. 3. 27 man roster, 30 players overall. I will choose the final 3. 14 P/13 hitters I will bump this thread on occasion. I asked some prominent White Sox Twitter people for help 1b Frank Thomas 2b Ray Durham 3b Pete Ward SS Luke Appling Lf Rudy Law Cf Chet Lemon Rf Avisail Garcia C A.J. Pierzynski DH Manny Ramirez bench C Ray Schalk C/DH Yermin Mercedes OF John Cangelosi If Tyler Saladino If Paco Martin If/Of Leury Garcia Of Willy Garcia 1b Chick Gandil Rotation SP Richard Dotson R SP Mark Buehrle L Sp Britt Burns L SP Jack McDowell R SP Kip Wells R Pen CL Dustin Hermanson R SU Bobby Thigpen R LR Wilbur Wood L MR Jim Parque L Spec Damaso Marte L MR Rick White R MR Italo Chelini L MR Ken Holcombe R MR charlie Haeger MGR - Jim Fregosi PC - Don Cooper HC Deron Johnson all other coaches are fictional

Eddie Collins, Shoeless Joe Jackson, Nellie Fox, Minnie Minoso, Wilbur Wood, Eddie Cicotte, and Ray Shalk all seem like pretty easy adds.

Maybe I don't grasp the whole concept, but I don't see Dick Allen on the list. Maybe he's too old for your purposes. In which case..no Minnie? He was 27 when he hit Comiskey and slugged over .400 for a decade

Harold Baines (DH) - Baines was a steady presence in the White Sox lineup for many years, earning six All-Star selections and hitting .289 with 384 home runs. Joe Jackson (RF) - Jackson was a five-time All-Star and one of the best power hitters of his time, hitting .390 with 36 home runs in the Black Sox's infamous 1919 season. Carlton Fisk (C) - Fisk was a legendary catcher and one of the best hitters of his time, earning 11 All-Star selections and hitting 376 home runs over his 24-year career. Starting Pitchers: Eddie Cicotte (RHP) - Cicotte was one of the top pitchers of his era, earning 29 wins and a 1.53 ERA in the 1919 season.

Mark Buehrle (LHP) - Buehrle was a durable and reliable pitcher, earning four All-Star selections and a lifetime record of 214-160 with a 3.81 ERA. Ted Lyons (RHP) - Lyons was a standout pitcher, earning 260 wins and a 3.67 ERA over his 21-year career. Early Wynn (RHP) - Wynn was a dominant pitcher, earning 300 wins and a 3.54 ERA over his 23-year career. Relief Pitchers: Hoyt Wilhelm (RHP) - Wilhelm was a dominant relief pitcher, earning 143 saves and a 2.52 ERA over his 21-year career.

Bench: Jim Landis (OF) - Landis was a solid outfielder and a two-time All-Star, earning a lifetime batting average of .267. A.J. Pierzynski (C) - Pierzynski was a solid catcher and a one-time All-Star, hitting . Evidently they think Joe Jackson and Shoeless Joe Jackson are two different people, I dunno.

Fisk will appear at some point but i do not need 3 great C on 1 team. as it is I have 2. My 3rd string is Yermin. Fisk will probably appear aafter Schalk or AJ leaves.

i have a HOFer and Pierzynski. defensively, neither are great though. offensively Schalk is decent. AJ us set to start every 3 games vs RHP. 1 every 6 vs LHP. My typical C I pick for my Sox teams are Charles Johnson, Ron Karkovice or Miguel Olvio as i prefer their defense.
