Name:<\/strong>\u00a0Todd Ritchie<\/p>\n

Rank:<\/strong>\u00a0384<\/p>\n

Position:<\/strong>\u00a0P<\/p>\n

Year With White Sox:<\/strong>\u00a02002<\/p>\n

Following the 2000 playoff loss to the Mariners, Kenny Williams traded for David Wells, thinking a front-line ace would help solidify a promising young staff and lead the team back to the playoffs. \u00a0When that didn’t turn out as planned, he turned his attention to Pittsburgh and Todd Ritchie, hoping that after 3 steady seasons with the Pirates, the right hander would stabilize the White Sox rotation. \u00a0That move was even worse.<\/p>\n

Ritchie was acquired from the Pirates in December 2001, in exchange for Josh Fogg, Sean Lowe, and Kip Wells. \u00a012 months, 1 week, and 1 wildly disappointing season later, he was granted free agency, after which he pitched in 9 more big league games before calling it a career.<\/p>\n

He started 23 games for the 2002 White Sox, managing to win only 5, while allowing nearly 100 more base runners than innings pitched with a crowd pleasing ERA of 6.06.<\/p>\n

Ritchie’s\u00a0numbers in a White Sox uniform, both\u00a0for games I attended and overall, were:<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n<\/tfoot>\n<\/table>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
