Very nice tribute to one of the classiest players to ever play for Our Sox. I’ll never forget what you did for us in 2005, Jermaine, and I know at least one fan who will cheer you until she loses her voice when you return to U.S.C.F., no matter who you return with.

Don’t worry, it will only be 6-18 months before we trade some prospects to bring him back in our usual fashion: love of former players + aged slow power hitting OF = win!

You were great for us J.D. Thanks for the memories and good luck.

A nice tribute to Mr. Dye. I think his stature will grow in Chicago as the years pass. I don’t think many White Sox fans (including me) ever gave him full credit for what he did for the franchise.

I would’ve gone with Burls, but JD is a great choice too. I was pretty excited when we signed him. My brother used to live in Missouri and has followed Jermaine since he was with the Royals. I remember him telling me JD would do a lot of good for whoever his new team was even before we signed him. I’d say it worked out ok! Maybe he is not really gone for good but like Scott above I really wish him the best with his new team.

JD is by far my favorite White Sox player in some time, I may even go as far as to say my favorite of ALL-time. I shed a few tears after the year he had and I would love to see us sign him to a “lite” contract and keep him until he hangs his spikes up for good; but that is just wishful thinking.

Jermaine, we had some good times together I wish you well wherever you go and will cheer for you no matter where you end up.
