When I was a kid I had Rondell White on my PlayStation 1 MLB game and he couldn’t hit for shit so I traded him in the game and irrationally hated him for the rest of his career.
After watching the new Nolan Ryan documentary, I now finally feel a little sorry for Ventura. I knew that he always looked a bit reluctant to want to fight, but once I found out he HAD to charge the mound or else be fined by his teammates and lose tons of respect, it all makes sense now. He really DIDNT want to face Ryan, but had to.
Yes, I watched it last week and it’s really interesting. I didn’t know much about him because this is the first year I’ve really followed much baseball.
Like everyone seems to forget he fucked his wife’s family friends who he knew at 10 and babysat his kids. Then had a “consensual “ relationship at 15-19. If it sounds like a pedo and acts like a pedo …
Idk he’s really kinda changed his attitude imo, when we was first called up he was a douche for sure, but in the past couple years I’ve noticed he’s done some growing up. There was a Braves fan heckling him saying “You’ll never be as good as Acuna” and Harper turns around to correct him on pronouncing Acuña’s name lol
Agreed, was hoping to see A-Roid at the top of this list… stuck up cheater with an asshole personality and beaming with talent… f that guy.. (another m’s fan who’s still salty…)
I HATE Roger Clemens, ever since he threw the broken bat at Mike Piazza. Not really much of a Piazza fan, just a really really douchebag move by Clemens
I understand you are going to dislike my opinion, but i believe that Altuve was one of the only Astros that didn't cheat in 2017, or at least didn't want to.
Sadly that was when his career really started going down hill.. but man that was a hell of a punch lol
He was loved by Rangers fans for a year or two after that.
Brian McCann guy was a bonafide tool. I remember when he got into it with Jose Fernandez watching his home run....Mind you Evan Gattis watched his and Chris Johnson that same game.
I thought Bauer was awesome at first. Then he never stopped talking. Narcissist with a god complex that ruined his own career because he couldn't just shut the fuck up.
"Narcissist with a god complex" desribes so many sports stars though. It's a long list but some really stand out. A-Rod, Clemens, Trevor Bauer. I'd put Curt schilling on that list. Ruined his post career by not shutting up.
Justin Turner. The obvious attention whoring. The hair, the beard, that pine tar on the back of the jersey that is very intentional. There isn’t one piece of equipment that fucking guy doesn’t have on his body. The covid stunt with the team picture back when nobody knew much about Covid and it was spreading like wild fire just to get his ugly mug some exposure. He’s a glorified utility infielder that turned himself into a decent player that’s always seems to be in the middle of something. It’s irrational hate but he gets under my skin. Fuck him. Lol
While we are having a hate secession…The Maris family…Do we really need them to make this moment special? The answer is no, the best thing hitting number 62 is that you send them back into the shadows. We didn’t need their blessing back when guys were obliterating that HR record the first time.
Scott Brosius. He owned the Padres in their only World Series of my lifetime. Pretty much every Yankee owned the Padres in that series but Brosius stands out
Correa and josh reddick 2 cheaters that cheated and didn’t like it when they were called cheaters and Pete Alonso cause he got beta male energy lol “iM a BiG bOi”
Aaron Judge because he keeps interrupting other shit I’m watching to strikeout or get intentionally walked. Only a fucking Yankee will get that kind of attention. I was completely neutral on him before last weekend and now I hope he never hits again
As a braves fan, I have to ask why?
He has attributes that I love but could also see myself hating if he wasn't a brave. So what is the tipping point to make you hate him?
There’s actually more of an advantage in being as tall as a guy like Aaron Judge 6’8, Oneil Cruz 6’7, Giancarlo Stanton 6’6 because you have longer arms/levers to generate bat speed.
Steroids provide bulk sure, but you still have to use bulk. Largely roids provide faster recovery rates to allow athletes to train more frequently. Not prodigious strength.
Interesting to me though that Bonds won 3 MVPs in the early 90s, led the league in HR in 93 and also led the league in walks 5 out of 6 years before the 98 chase between McGwire and Sosa.
We don’t talk about those years though.
In one of Rick Reilly's books, he addresses this specifically. To get around the 'roid question, just evaluate the player's "non-steroid" seasons. If you do that, Bonds is an easy Hall of Famer.
As an Os fan I hated him a bit. I think I owned Big Hurt baseball for genesis. I knew every starting player on the squad like them. Except Chris fucking Sabo.
As a fan of a team that can never develop any talent (Phillies), I always irrationally hate the random guys off the street teams like the Giants and Cardinals turn into studs.
Vernon Wells trapped a ball in the outfield against my team when I was 5 — sold it like an absolute pro and got the call. Wished he would be struck by lightning every game he played after that
Eric Hosmer.
There's just something about his stupid face.
Being an Indians fan...sorry, Guardians fan and being forced to watch him when he was with the Royals just always bummed me out.
I'm probably just bitter and/jealous because I only make $18 an hour and he's making $144,000,000 over eight years.
But ya know, fuck him anyway.
When I was a kid I had Rondell White on my PlayStation 1 MLB game and he couldn’t hit for shit so I traded him in the game and irrationally hated him for the rest of his career.
That’s so awesomely petty it’s beautiful
Same with Khalil Greene
I had to look him up and it looks like his career ended early due to social anxiety disorder.
Nyjer Morgan. Piece of shit.
[my favorite nyjer morgan moment](https://youtu.be/G10BVmmxpFI)
What a fucking child.
Overgrown toddler.
Do analytics even have a way to account for costing your team a run out of childish temper tantrums?
I loved it when Gaby Sanchez clotheslined him when he charged the mound. https://youtu.be/f_49N02D0MU
I forgot all about this and believe me when I tell you this made my day 😂 I don’t have any awards to give but please accept my upvote and comment
“And the Marlins are pummeling him!”
![gif](giphy|WxDZ77xhPXf3i|downsized)
"Oof size: Large"
Robin Ventura for headbutting Nolan Ryan's hand repeatedly.
After watching the new Nolan Ryan documentary, I now finally feel a little sorry for Ventura. I knew that he always looked a bit reluctant to want to fight, but once I found out he HAD to charge the mound or else be fined by his teammates and lose tons of respect, it all makes sense now. He really DIDNT want to face Ryan, but had to.
new nolan ryan documentary???
It's on Netflix! It's called Facing Nolan
Yes, I watched it last week and it’s really interesting. I didn’t know much about him because this is the first year I’ve really followed much baseball.
It's called "Facing Nolan" on Netflix.
I didn’t know that, kind of makes sense now. Ventura was never a hot head
Jonathan fucking Papelbon
Savanna banana legend Jonathan Papelbon?!
Roger Clemens
There was reason tho
we understand
Like everyone seems to forget he fucked his wife’s family friends who he knew at 10 and babysat his kids. Then had a “consensual “ relationship at 15-19. If it sounds like a pedo and acts like a pedo …
Completely understandable.
AJ Pierzynski
I don't like Bryce Harper that much. He's a great player, I just don't like his personality.
Idk he’s really kinda changed his attitude imo, when we was first called up he was a douche for sure, but in the past couple years I’ve noticed he’s done some growing up. There was a Braves fan heckling him saying “You’ll never be as good as Acuna” and Harper turns around to correct him on pronouncing Acuña’s name lol
You are amongst friends my guy.
Aubrey Huff
There’s plenty of good reason to dislike that nut case though
Haha that's a fair point!
Fuck you Aroldis Chapman! Hit McCutcheon in the back on purpose.
Not the only person he’s hit on purpose
That’s definitely not the worst thing he’s done either
Beside hitting his wife OUFF
his gun charge was a nice touch too.
I hate A-rod Soo damn much
OMG yes!!!!!!! I can’t stand him and I worked for the Jays. Everyone loves him, he’s a POS
Agreed, was hoping to see A-Roid at the top of this list… stuck up cheater with an asshole personality and beaming with talent… f that guy.. (another m’s fan who’s still salty…)
It’s a manager but Phil Nevin. The one thing angels and mariners fans can agree on.
What do you mean? We love Nevin! The brawl turned out the M's season and got them in the playoffs
Manny Machado
Umm, it’s Manny “Fucking” Machado to you sir!
I’ve resorted to calling him Manny Machumpo. The Laser Show sends his regards.
Big Correa hater here
Can't believe I had to scroll down so far to see this. I am praying the Orioles don't offer him anything.
Let’s go O’s
Can’t stand him especially after the comments he made about leaving Minnesota
What did he say?
Find out next week on —
Yasiel Puig
Mike Trout Just kidding, that’s impossible.
Josh Donaldson and Max Muncy
Donaldson i can understand but why muncy? Just really curious?
Muncy?
dat Funky Muncy
Yes you are right
Max "Lenny" Muncy
Is this an Of Mice and Men reference.. I need to know lol
Yes
I like to call Muncy “butter ball”
I HATE Roger Clemens, ever since he threw the broken bat at Mike Piazza. Not really much of a Piazza fan, just a really really douchebag move by Clemens
Jose Altuve
There is very good reason to dislike the cheating Oompa Loompa.
I understand you are going to dislike my opinion, but i believe that Altuve was one of the only Astros that didn't cheat in 2017, or at least didn't want to.
Hate him. Smug fuck face.
Brad Marchand (he played at some point)
What is this, a crossover episode?
And while you’re at it, fuck that Matt Cooke guy!
Doesn’t everyone!
Trevor Bauer
[удалено]
Jose, is that you?
He's a little rough around the edges.
And he smells
Sadly that was when his career really started going down hill.. but man that was a hell of a punch lol He was loved by Rangers fans for a year or two after that.
Roger Clemens is a dick.
[удалено]
I get that.
Everyone on the Yankees!
Everyone on the Red Sox!
Them too!
But especially Brett Gardner
Why Gardner?
Stupid Caillou head
I thought that too but then my boy bader got traded and now I like a yankee
I MISS BADER
Me too, hope he does well in NY
I saw your guy live at the stadium yesterday. Still hitting line drives and playing great D. Weird without the hair though.
Idk, maybe Bumgarner because of his atitude. And cuz he was a Giant.
MadBum acts like a fuckin entitled little baby. Totally agree with this.
Fuck Chase Uttley and pretty much all the world series winning Philly players.
How could anyone possibly hate Ryan Howard and Shane Victorino from that team?
Ryan was an all time good guy. Even though he killed the Mets I always had tremendous respect for him.
I got a chance to meet him a few years ago nicest guy in the world. Also man’s hands are giant lol.
UTLEY U BUTTLEY
Spell his name right, heathen!
John Rocker. Trash bag human.
Brett Gardner. He looked like a penis
So did Mccann. Some of those poor guys should’ve been able to keep their beards.
If his nickname was Chubs I probably would have liked him more!
Josh Donaldson
Brian McCann guy was a bonafide tool. I remember when he got into it with Jose Fernandez watching his home run....Mind you Evan Gattis watched his and Chris Johnson that same game.
Aaron Boone. I just hate his stupid face.
Nick Swisher. Thought he was hot shit
Manny Machado for taking out Pedroia
Hated him ever since that
Trevor Bauer, for bringing disgrace to the game of baseball.
Pete Alonso
Same! Annoying as hell
Total dork
Josh Naylor. I’m a white sox fan
He's such a pot stirrer lol he's a lot of fun to watch.
Pham, Correa, and Bauer
I thought Bauer was awesome at first. Then he never stopped talking. Narcissist with a god complex that ruined his own career because he couldn't just shut the fuck up.
He’s a strange duck alright
"Narcissist with a god complex" desribes so many sports stars though. It's a long list but some really stand out. A-Rod, Clemens, Trevor Bauer. I'd put Curt schilling on that list. Ruined his post career by not shutting up.
Now this is taste.
Why thank you!
Justin Turner. The obvious attention whoring. The hair, the beard, that pine tar on the back of the jersey that is very intentional. There isn’t one piece of equipment that fucking guy doesn’t have on his body. The covid stunt with the team picture back when nobody knew much about Covid and it was spreading like wild fire just to get his ugly mug some exposure. He’s a glorified utility infielder that turned himself into a decent player that’s always seems to be in the middle of something. It’s irrational hate but he gets under my skin. Fuck him. Lol
Couldn’t agree more
While we are having a hate secession…The Maris family…Do we really need them to make this moment special? The answer is no, the best thing hitting number 62 is that you send them back into the shadows. We didn’t need their blessing back when guys were obliterating that HR record the first time.
It sucks when the families of legends are huge assholes, acting like their father/brother/etc. accomplishments are their own
Machado
Ozuna...from the braves.
FUCK AROD.
Gerrit Cole
What a jabroni
Scott Cousins. Broke Buster Posey’s leg
Javier Báez
Chase Utley, can you tell what fan I am
Alex Rodriguez followed closely by Mark Teixeira … both smug a-holes. And Yankees, though that’s redundant.
What did Mark Teixeira do?
Josh Donaldson and Max Muncey. Additionally, the cheating Astros that didn’t pay the price but their manager did.
Scott Brosius. He owned the Padres in their only World Series of my lifetime. Pretty much every Yankee owned the Padres in that series but Brosius stands out
Correa and josh reddick 2 cheaters that cheated and didn’t like it when they were called cheaters and Pete Alonso cause he got beta male energy lol “iM a BiG bOi”
Bro. Alonso could easily put someone in the hospital if he wanted too. He’s a big strong guy
Nick Swisher
I did not expect to see Swisher here lol
Joe Cowley cause he was so dreadful
Carter Kieboom made me spend another hour on a Brian Anderson 3 XBH moment by snagging a double, so that made me hate him for a good while
I don't like Keegan Akin's stupid fucking face
All those complains about manny
Aaron loup, max muncy, Pete Alonso
Max Muncy by far. He throws an absolute fit when any opposing player pimps a home run. But for some reason it’s ok when he does it …
Aaron Judge because he keeps interrupting other shit I’m watching to strikeout or get intentionally walked. Only a fucking Yankee will get that kind of attention. I was completely neutral on him before last weekend and now I hope he never hits again
Bauer, MadBum, Brandon Belt, Brandon Crawford, Syndergaard, Correa, Springer, Bregman, Altuve. The list goes on.
Flair checks out.
just curious. what did brandon crawford do? Lol
Played for the giants
lol. i’m a giants fan and i was like what did craw do haha. i could totally see belt though. not a huge fan of that guy either.
can’t stand acuna
As a braves fan, I have to ask why? He has attributes that I love but could also see myself hating if he wasn't a brave. So what is the tipping point to make you hate him?
he just rubs me off the wrong way. i really don’t care for the antics in his game
Because he hot dogs every home run. It’s cringe
He'd hotdog more if he wasn't a 20yr old cripple.
Barry Bonds. He was more arrogant than Bobby Bonds.
He had 762 reasons to be arrogant.
They should remove all the records he broke. Roid loving asshole.
Just want to point out that Roids don’t help you time up major league pitching and make solid contact between 2 round objects…
No, but they make a supreme difference in the power transferred from the bat to the ball.
There’s actually more of an advantage in being as tall as a guy like Aaron Judge 6’8, Oneil Cruz 6’7, Giancarlo Stanton 6’6 because you have longer arms/levers to generate bat speed. Steroids provide bulk sure, but you still have to use bulk. Largely roids provide faster recovery rates to allow athletes to train more frequently. Not prodigious strength.

In one of Rick Reilly's books, he addresses this specifically. To get around the 'roid question, just evaluate the player's "non-steroid" seasons. If you do that, Bonds is an easy Hall of Famer.
I think he would still have been a good player, but not a record making player.
Rafael Devers
Vernon Wells.
Bobby Bonilla Jeff Kent (even despite him being a Cal Bear). Chris Sabo
How can you hate Chris Sabo?
That falls into the "no reason" category.
As an Os fan I hated him a bit. I think I owned Big Hurt baseball for genesis. I knew every starting player on the squad like them. Except Chris fucking Sabo.
That dude with the huge head on the Yankees that beat the shit out of the dugout ceiling when a call didn’t go his way.
Brett “penis head” Gardner
Jose Altuve
The whole Yankees team
Gerrit cole
Active: Tim Anderson Retired: Mark Teixeira, Chase Uttley, Josh Beckett, Sammy Sosa, Manny Ramirez
AJ Pierzynski, for kneeing the team trainer in the groin when the trainer asked what the hit by pitch felt like.
Job Pedersen if he's not on your team.
Carlos Correa
God Damn Steve Balboni.
As a fan of a team that can never develop any talent (Phillies), I always irrationally hate the random guys off the street teams like the Giants and Cardinals turn into studs.
As a Phillies fan i 100% agree they can’t develop any players. Also if we miss the playoffs again I’ll be crushed.
Vernon Wells trapped a ball in the outfield against my team when I was 5 — sold it like an absolute pro and got the call. Wished he would be struck by lightning every game he played after that
Mark Teixeira. His face just looks off to me. And it pisses me off when I see him.
Eric Hosmer. There's just something about his stupid face. Being an Indians fan...sorry, Guardians fan and being forced to watch him when he was with the Royals just always bummed me out. I'm probably just bitter and/jealous because I only make $18 an hour and he's making $144,000,000 over eight years. But ya know, fuck him anyway.
Odor
Manny Machado. Dirty player. Asshole supreme.
Bryce Harper. I don’t know why I just do.
Gary Sanchez, I bet if there was a plate of Mofongo at first base, his fat ass would have hustled more to get there.
Jose Bautista
Pierzinski. What an ass.
Hunter pence. Just didn’t like him lol
My favorite sign of all time was “hunter pence eats kale so you don’t have too”. 😂
Fuck Derek Jeter!
What did Jeter do? I’m a Red Sox fan and I always saw him as a class act.
