Paul Konerko is synonymous with the White Sox, but he homered for two other big-league clubs during his career.
Nope, didn’t know that
Konerko was a home run hitter first and foremost. 18 seasons totaling a 28.1 bWAR despite batting .279, 439 HRs and 118 OPS+. He was a below average fielder at 1B which did not help his HOF resume. Fun player to watch hit. Almost HOF guy for sure.
Yes, indeed! That bat was undeniable, but the glove was certainly questionable.
