I reluctantly went with Mulder because again - I never took JOY in watching Mulder suck. I was mostly just frustrated by it and hoped he'd improve the next time out. That gives me just enough to root for him.
Flaherty, OTOH, I just cannot stand the guy.

I recall Mike Shannon on the radio one afternoon just totally going in on Mulder for not pitching inside enough. He said something to the effect of Mulder being scared to throw inside. I thought it was hilarious.
