There should be a 30 for 30 about that White Sox Team. They really didn't have any stars. Besides Buerhle, they had no one. Frank Thomas was at the end of his career and hurt. Obviously Ozzie deserves a lot of the credit for creating that culture.
Hoyer landing Tucker was the stroke of genius. Lets not kid ourselves, Suzuki and PCA have benefitted greatly with him in the lineup.
I even think people always overrated Buerhle. Great pitcher, and was even more fun to watch. But I don’t think he was ever anything more than a fringe top-10 starter in the league.
