In anticipation of the release next week of the 2019 South Side Sox White Sox Hall of Fame ballot, I’m soliciting nominations for some new categories, and welcome feedback on the existing ones.
You’ll recall last year we voted for an inaugural Hall of Fame class consisting of Frank Thomas, Minnie Miñoso, Nellie Fox, Luis Aparicio and Luke Appling. But in addition to the standard vote, we included several special categories:
- Greatest White Sox Season
- Contributor
- Best Gimmick
- Best Promotion
- Uniforms
- Manager
- Moments
Now, we’re going to run out of gimmicks and promotions, so I’ll combine that category this year.
