| Jon Adkins | 37 | Pitcher | Shorter than I imagined... Quiet guy from WV |
| Roberto Alomar | 12 | Second Base | Little Brother; Future Hall of Famer, Matt was thrilled to take this with him! |
|
Sandy Alomar |
15 | Catcher | Big Brother; the Original Buehrle Security Blanket |
| Joe Borchard | 25 |
Outfield (mainly Right) | Expressed waaay more emotion at this year's Photo Day; kinda scared me & Christine |
| Mark Buehrle | 56 | Pitcher | Chris's favorite... even with the beard.... maybe. Pulled her in nice and close. |
| Jamie Burke | 27 | Catcher | Really nice guy; the New Buehrle Security Blanket (and Matt looks like that cuz he's answering Jamie) |
| Neal Cotts | 46 | Pitcher | "Cotts is Hotts" ... 'nuff said =) (No really, he's got really pretty blue eyes.) |
| Joe Crede | 24 | Third Base | Joe is such a sweetie. Oh and we saw him in Denny's >=) |
| Ben Davis | 31 | Catcher | "Big Ben"; really tall, but super nice guy |
| Carl Everett | 8 | Outfield | Carl's a different sort of guy, but was nice nonetheless. |
| Freddy Garcia | 34 | Pitcher | Christine really wanted to take a pic with him |
| Jon Garland | 20 | Pitcher | My favorite. Christine thinks it's cute that he bent down. (He's 6'6") |
| Ross Gload | 26 | Bench (First Base, some Outfield) | Nice guy; quite possibly has found a home with a team, finally. |
| Willie Harris | 1 | Second Base | Willie was cute. He signed a ball for the little boy next to us, even though he wasn't supposed to. |
| Mike Jackson | 38 | Pitcher | Truthfully, no one really wanted to take a pic with him, but Matt & I sucked it up. Nice guy, I guess. Bad pitcher. |
| Paul Konerko | 14 | First Base | Paulie!!!! What's not to love about him? |
| Damaso Marte | 43 | Pitcher | Another nice guy; likes to keep to himself. |
| Timo Perez | 7 | Bench (Outfield) | Timo looks like it's a mugshot. Maybe he's smiling with his eyes. |
| Cliff Politte | 18 | Pitcher | Really nice guy. Poor guy missed the end of the season when he had his appendix removed! |
| Aaron Rowand | 33 | Center Field | A-Row!! Another favorite of mine. Nice guy. Great player! |
| Scott Schoeneweis | 60 | Pitcher | Scott kinda looks like something smells funny. I know it's the sun, but still... |
| Shingo Takatsu | 10 | Pitcher | Matt's favorite. He really was excited to take this picture. But poor Shingo... a little overwhelmed, I think. |
| Juan Uribe | 5 | Bench (Any Infield position but First) | Nice guy (I know, I keep saying that, but they are!) And he really is smiling! Stupid sun... stupid disposable camera! |
| Jose Valentin | 22 | Shortstop | Jose, Jose, Jose,
Jose, Jose, Jose! Kinda looks like he jumped in the shot. Oh
well! |
| Ozzie Guillen | 13 | Manager | Another one Chris wanted really bad. He was rushed cuz he's such a chatterbox! Former Sox player... |
| Harold Baines | 3 | Bench Coach | Known for being a quiet guy. Former Sox player... |
| Joey Cora | 28 | Third Base Coach | He's so little, it's so cute! Former Sox player... |
| Rafael Santana | 17 | First Base Coach | Replaced this offseason by Tim "Rock" Raines, a former Sox player... |
| Greg Walker | 29 | Hitting Coach | He's from Georgia and I love to hear him talk. Former Sox player... see a pattern here? |
