Juan Pierre came to the White Sox from the Dodgers in exchange for Jon Link and John Ely on December 15, 2009. He moved in to the leadoff spot and left field for the 2010 White Sox, putting up a solid season offensively with a .275 average with 22 extra base hits. He led all of MLB with 68 stolen bases, the second highest total in franchise history behind Rudy Law’s total of 77 in 1983.
2011 saw Pierre just as effective with the bat, but saw large drop-offs both on the basepaths and in the outfield. His stolen base total dropped to 27, while he was caught 17 times. He also tied for the league lead for all left fielders with 7 errors. Following the season, he became a free agent.
