Probably Tony Gwynn or Junior in his Seattle days.
AJ Pierzynski is one of those guys that you would love if he was on your team but otherwise hate the shit out of. |
Ken griffey Jr.
He could of been best ever if he didn't play in steroid era! |
Mark McGwire
Loved watching him in BP before games. |
I duno if this counts...I consider myself a Royals fan. As a kid before I moved to KC, I lived in Minneapolis. I loved Kirby.

Ken Griffey Jr. or George Brett.

Griffey Jr. had the sweetest swing.

I also loved Eric Davis. I have an old Reds hat because of him.
My favorite NON-Royal from back in the day is Don Mattingly... even though he played for the Yankees, I liked him. In fact, only Yankee great to NOT win a WS ring. |
Carlton Fisk
|
Greg Gagne
Then back when the owner still cared by the grace of Ewing Kauffman, he did play on my team I remember he got a pitch thrown at him and he walked to the opposing dugout talking shit .next pitch he bombs one to left center Stares the dugout down the entire time he's circling the bases Talk about a throwback. .. |

Any player who juiced and hit a lot of homeruns.
Baseball was better back then. |
Back on track, I did like Frank Thomas
You could throw him the nastiest pitch ever But if it wasn't in the zone, he wouldn't bite |
Nolan Ryan
Named my first born after him and Brett |
Pitchers-
Pedro Martinez Randy Johnson Mark Mulder (pre-cardinals) Greg Maddox Roy Halladay (this dude had complete ownership of the Royals, and I'm talking early 2000s/late 1990s when the Royals had Dye, Beltran, Damon, aka: one of the better offenses in baseball, he was amazing) Hitters- Ken Griffey Jr Garret Anderson Roberto Alomar Jim Thome Bernie Williams |
Pujols during his Cardinals days was always worth watching.
|
When I was growing up, and the Royals were just starting up, my favorite baseball player was Julian Javier of the St. Louis Cardinals. He played 2B, so did I. My dad's favorite was Al Kaline of the Detroit Tigers. George Brett was his second favorite.
|
Fan of teams not individuals. Not on the Cards...**** em.
