O is for Ordonez
Magglio "Mags" Ordonez
I talked earlier about White Sox players who left after the 2004 season and missed the World Championship. Magglio Ordonez was one of those guys. Ordonez played for the Sox from 1997 to 2004 and then played with the Detroit Tigers from 2005 to 2011. While his batting average went up 5 points while with the tiger, his slugging percentage went down 50. He made it the World Series with the Tigers in 2006 but on the losing end and batted a miserable .105 with no extra base hits.
With the Sox, Mags hit 187 of his 294 career home runs. 187 puts him 5th all-time for the Sox. Ordonez averaged 26 homers for every 162 games played in the major leagues. His best HR seasons for the Chisox were 2002 when he 38, and 200 when he hit 32.
