Most Unlikable Baseball Player Tournament - Round 1, Heat 15

[Mama Hip Rockets]

Please vote for the two players you dislike the most in each heat. Feel free to give reasons (words, pictures, videos, etc.) why this player is unlikable, as it may not always be immediately evident and you may persuade others to join in your disdain of douchey players. Four players from the nomination poll will be chosen randomly for each heat, and the top two will go to round two.

HEAT 15:

Yadier Molina (Cardinals)

Molina runs like the slowest man on Earth and then throws his helment and freaks out when the umpire correctly calls him out:

Stroman calls Bautista his role model:
http://news.nationalpost.com/sports/mlb/you-have-to-adapt-to-the-times-toronto-blue-jays-marcus-stroman-has-jose-bautistas-back-after-slugger-slammed

“That’s my brother, man,” said Stroman. “That’s my guy. I will back him up on anything. He’s one of my role models, my mentors. He’s taken me under his wing from Day One. I see what he does on and off the field, how he trains, how he goes about his business. He does it professionally and he works harder than anybody in the league. So, I’m a huge fan of Joey Bats and you just have to adapt to the times. That’s what it comes down to.”

I found this picture on the internet while searching for why people don't like Josh Hamilton, so I guess there's this:

Good battle for second place here between Stroman and Hamilton.

Hamilton for killing that fire fighter.

WHO is butthurt over Molina? Are you implying Royals fans??

If so, why would Royals fans care about the second best catcher in the state of Missouri?

We have current leading AL vote getter/Gold Glover/World Series MVP, Salvy Perez.


No reason to be butt hurt. :shrug:

Yeah, is this a Cincinnati Reds forum?

Molina should have never been in this contest. Molina is definitely a better catcher than Perez.
The Royals are the 2cd best team in Missouri.

Stop trolling. It's not even a fair comparison at this point in there careers. Molina did have a nice 4-5 year run though. Now he's got less power in his swing than most pitchers

Power is not the only category and is not the most important category for a catcher.

[POND_OF_RED]

Pick a category, any category. Perez is still better

Except it's not a worst player contest. It's a most unlikable douche contest. The vids clearly show he's a douchebag.

Molina ? ROFL Butthurt sumbitches

You seem to be the butthurt one here. Not one Royals fan (if that is who you're implying is butthurt) gives a flying fuck about Yadi Molina. Through my experience, I have never seen a fanbase get any more uptight and defensive about a single player's perceived skills than when an opposing fan comments on Yadier Molina. At least the Cardinals fans that I have personally interacted with really seem to hate the sheer thought that their boy isn't at the top of the mountain anymore.

[Chief Roundup]

Runs Scored, OBP, BB, GDP, GO, GO_AO, NP, PA Molina is better than Perez not to mention that Perez is not better with pitchers. He is not a better leader for his team. Not to mention Molina has 7 years in the league on the youngster.

Haha. Ok. Completely trolling now. You got me. Went a little too far with the "not a better leader for his team" or I would have thought you were actually being serious.

You couldn't have hand-picked any more irrelevant statistics when comparing the value of two catchers if you tried harder.

[Chief Roundup]

He did say any category. :Poke:

Did you watch the videos in this thread? How could you possibly say he shouldn't be in an unlikable players tournament after seeing all that?

GO? GO_AO? NP? PA? Are these statistics that measure the value of a catcher?

Even if they were, this is a douche contest, not a GO, GO_AO contest.

Because he has been provoked and for the same reason people are picking players that have ever done one little thing against the Royals as unlikable.

Provoked? An umpire doing his job is provocation for throwing your helmet and throwing a tantrum like a toddler?

Molina unlikable?!? There have definitely been some unlikable Cardinals over the years, but Molina isn't one of them. Molina is one of the most likable Cardinals, hands down.

I'm sure that's true if you're a Cardinals fan. But pretend you're not for a second and watch the videos in this thread. Particularly the ones with the umpires. He's a gigantic baby.

Coming from the guy who nominated Kris Bryant this comment just shows your homer goggles.
