in Buy, Sell & Trade - Cards & Memorabilia
Seems that the fans hated him the last couple years in Chicago because of his poor play and being hurt all the time....

Just wondering what everone else thinks about them signing him again......

    I like Frank Thomas...

    I think he has quit on the team a few time's in the past..

    But hell who wouldn't they have sucked and not given Frank alot of help over the years......

    they got him at a price they can afford...his injury seems to have finally healed and he did seem like his old self the last 6 weeks of the season...and he's probably as good as anyone else available for the price and wants to play for the White Sox

    It's not like they would have been able to lure anybody in with the extra cash, Ken Williams isn't the most popular GM in the world, and the White Sox aren't an attractive team to halfway decent FA.

    Poor guy wanting to play for the White Soxes


    That's true he did end the season on a good note.I wish he gone to another team and maybe got a chance for a ring .Since that is what most players do today...

    He would have been a perfect fit in Atlanta, I'm glad they didn't get him though, Expos in '03 image.

    They tried to deal him a couple of times but nobody wanted to take
    on that salary.He made a deal with the Sox for 1 year with special
    options for 2 or 3 more years after that.
    I think he would like to finish his career in Chicago.We hope he stays
    healthy this season; he is one of the last big hitters who is fun to watch when he's totally healthy.

    Ask my brother that happened to collect a LOT of Frank Thomas cards what he thinks about him image Everything was fine until Big Hurt began to pull a Dale Murphy and play himself out of Cooperstown image He COULD play himself back in but it'd take a McGwire-like career renaissance to really make the HOF a possibility.
