Alright, we did this last season when he got close to 400 last season, and I created that thread sometime in the offseason.

Top 5 All time White Sox home run hitters:
1. Frank Thomas (448)
2. Paul Konerko (415)
3. Harold Baines (221)
4. Carlton Fisk (214)
5. Magglio Ordonez (187)

If Paulie can hit 34, he'll overtake Big Frank. And I think if he hits over 34, he'll re-sign in hopes of getting to #500 of his career.
If he passes Frank he would only need a minimum of 51 dongs.

Thoughts?

I may be a Cub fan, but two of my favorite White Sox players are Big Frank and Paul Konerko.

And after his first two hits in 2013, he'll be ranked third all time in hits for the Sox.

Probably the best two to pick.

EDIT: WTF? Thanks are gone?

He might need two or three more seasons to get to 500. Certainly doable but he is running out of time...

Rush turned a bunch of featured off to figure out why the forum was messing up so much. Wait about a week but they are aware.

*sigh* Frank Thomas was always my favorite player growing up. If anyone deserves to break it, it's Konerko. He's always been fun to watch.

Just hit the star and give me some rep ;)

Seriously though, I am not a White Sox hater. I just don't really cheer for them. But there have been a few players on the south side who I could not help but like. Those two just happen to be at the top of the list.

Buehrlee was another, and Alexi is pretty damn good as well.

That's what I am worried about, honestly. MVPKonerko is my favourite player, and I'm afraid he'll get to like 450 and retire. :(

I think Paulie needs to play for the Sox in 2014 if he wants to pass Big Frank

500 will be a stretch. he always keeps talking about retiring. he would need to be a dh somewhere to hit 500. sad thing is, is that it probably wouldnt happen in a sox uni

To be honest, I don't want him to be #1. Frank should be, with Carlton being second and Paulie third... In my dream world :)
