Scott Podsednik

Seattle couldn’t find a spot for him, and Milwaukee decided to replace him — but Scott Podsednik proved invaluable in Chicago — as his tenacious hitting and furious base running helped build the blueprint that the White Sox turned into the 2005 World Champions. Chicago’s left fielder missed 33 games in 2005, but still remained one of only four players to steal more than 50 bases. While his game is speed, “Pods” showed timely power — crashing two homers in the postseason to help the White Sox win it all.
