Tadahito Iguchi, Steve Sax, Harold Baines the third time, and Skip Pitlock.

But seriously.... personal favorites are Frank Thomas, Carlton Fisk, Luis Aparicio and Paul Konerko

Yeah, he could play. 20+ wins 4 straight years, 42+ strarts 5 straight years, lifetime 3.2 era (which I think was lower when only taking into account his WS years...not sure)...

Yeah we was damn good. Hes up there but imo the mt rushmore is stats plus the "popularity" of a player. I mean Buehrle could qualify but he never had that flare or popularity outside the city. but i get why you picked wilbur.

Yeah, I understand the love for a lot of other guys (Fisk, Konerko, Appling especially)...just wanted to include a guy that several may have forgotten about, but should still be in consideration :)
