Rank: 167

Position: 2B/3B

Years With White Sox: 2009-2010

Jayson Nix signed with the White Sox as a free agent following the 2008 season.  He spent the 2009 season in a utility role with the White Sox, appearing in 94 games and hitting 12 home runs, despite a .224 batting average.

He was competing for the starting second baseman job in spring training 2010, but a pulled quadriceps put him out of commission.  After he finally recovered, his performance tanked.  He wound up batting .163 in 24 games before being designated for assignment on June 18 to make room on the roster for Dayan Viciedo.  A week later, he was claimed by the Indians, bringing his White Sox career to an end.
