In the ’80s pop culture classic “Bill and Ted’s Excellent Adventure,” two teenagers traveled back in time to kidnap some of history’s most famous people to help with their history assignment. Welcome to a life-long Sox fan’s version. Two key rules were followed in making these prestigious selections:
A player’s “name recognition” in MLB does not ensure him a spot on this list. Their contribution to the White Sox does. For example, David Wells’ 200+ career wins does not grant him a spot because he only threw 100 innings in a Sox uniform. For that matter, neither does Jake Peavy’s handful of innings last summer.
Slight bonus points given to anyone on the 2005 White Sox. Breaking an 88-year curse has to count for something.
