Players

The name of each player is followed by the position they primarily played with the White Sox – which may be different from the position they primarily played during their career – and then by their years with the team, and finally by any major awards won while with the White Sox. Players currently with the team are listed in bold. A name listed in italics indicates that the individual never played for any other major league team; otherwise, a year in italics indicates that the White Sox were either the first or last major league team for which the person played. If there is only a single year listed in italics, it is followed by a note indicating whether the White Sox were their first or last major league team.
