Years With White Sox: 2003-2004

With the White Sox in contention for a division crown at the trade deadline in 2003, they swung a deal with the Angels to bolster their bullpen, getting Scott Schoeneweis, along with Doug Nickle, in exchange for Tim Bittner, Scott Dunn, and Gary Glover.  Schoeneweis appeared in 20 games for the White Sox down the stretch, putting up a 4.50 ERA as the team faltered.

In 2004, he moved into the starting rotation, but success was hard to find.  In 20 appearances, 19 of them starts, his ERA jumped to 5.59.  After the season, he was allowed to leave as a free agent.

In 2007, Schoeneweis found himself in the Mitchell Report, with claims that he received six shipments of steroids at US Cellular Field while a member of the White Sox.  He denied the allegations and the commissioner’s office decided not to suspend him.

Name: Gary Glover

Rank: 274

Position: P

Years With White Sox: 2001-2003

Gary Glover joined the White Sox on November 7, 2000 after being acquired from the Blue Jays in exchange for Scott Eyre.  Glover split the year between Chicago and Charlotte, and between the bullpen and the rotation.  He finished the year with a 5–5 record and a 4.93 ERA in 46 appearances, including 11 starts.

Glover spent the entire 2002 season with the White Sox, but again split his time between the rotation, where he was not very successful, and the bullpen, where he was.  In mid-September, manager Jerry Manuel announced that Glover would stay in the bullpen for the rest of 2002 and in 2003.

In 2003, Glover became the forgotten man in the White Sox bullpen.  Going as many as 19 days between appearances, Glover made his way in to only 24 games by the end of July, when he was moved along with two minor leaguers to the Angels for for veteran pitcher Scott Schoeneweis.
