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 2022 revision of our top 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 was not able to make the playoffs, but they were contenders.  There were no new entrants, though one elevation.

As always, we present our top five, which was not affected by the last season:

1. Frank Thomas

2. Ed Walsh

3. Luke Appling

4. Ted Lyons

5. Red Faber

You can find the entire list here.

Shortstop, Tim Anderson, climbed from #50 to #43.

We welcome your input and comments and as always, we thank you for your support.

42. Manuel Margot

Manuel Margot played four seasons in San Diego before he was traded to Tampa, where he again played four years, before he was traded to the Los Angeles Dodgers.

Margot played in all three Outfield positions. While he was a light hitter, batting only .264 with 320 Hits and 19 Home Runs as a Ray, his defensive versatility made him valuable for Tampa Bay. He shined brightest in the 2020 Playoffs, where he had four Home Runs and made an incredible catch in foul territory in rightfield, falling six feet to make the catch. 

The stay for Margot in Tampa is brief, but they usually are as a Ray.
