We are launching a new daily article here at South Side Sox, more prominently than our items that pop up on The Feed. It falls under the category of White Sox Discussions, which you’ll see in a few weeks
will also be our new branding for Game Threads.
While the White Sox have pulled off a number of heists over the years (Nellie Fox, Luke Appling, Wilbur Wood, Billy Pierce, among others), they have been on the losing end quite a bit as well. Entire novellas have been written about the acquisition, and quick dumping soon thereafter, of Nick Swisher. But there have been more than “Swish”; in fact, a bad trade doesn’t have to be one where too much is given away but what was received was such a turkey, as in the trade that brought Ron Santo to the South Side (and sent, among others, Nick’s dad Steve to the Cubs).
What trade still feels like a stake in your heart?
