The other day, we had a "Reader Challenge" here on Da Box asking everyone to name their Top 10 Favorite Players. Dozens of individual ballplayers earned mention -- yes, you all love Doc Halladay -- with many people commenting on what a fun exercise it was.
This followup is spurred by a comment from Dave Till, who wrote that one of my own Top 10 favorites, Bill Gullickson, was solidly on his "all-time worst list." We both had legitimate and defensible reasons -- such is the greatness of "baseball favorite" discussions.
So let's try to build the opposite list -- um, not "the opposite of fun," but rather "the opposite of favorite" -- for each of us here. In other words, answer this question ...
Who are the ballplayers (list 10 if you've got 'em, but however many you want) who you always, always, rooted against? That you just couldn't stand, even if/when he was on a team you liked? Bottom line: who are your Bottom (fill in the number of your choice) Least Favorite baseball players?
Ready? Go!
