The ten greatest White Sox position player draftees since Crede and Rowand

We take a look back at the White Sox's best non-pitcher success stories from the amateur draft in the last fourteen years

Back in 2000, 22-year-old Joe Crede made his debut for the Chicago White Sox. The following year, 23-year-old Aaron Rowand made his. Both players carved out good careers for themselves and were regarded as heroes for their roles on the 2005 World Series team. These days, they're referred to as something of an unfortunate benchmark because they're the most recent position players signed by the Sox out of the amateur draft that both made their major league debut and provided league-average-or-better performance on the South Side.
