Most Unlikable Baseball Player Tournament - Round 3, Heat 3

[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 who advanced from the first two rounds will be chosen randomly for each heat, and the top two will go to the Elite Eight in round four.

ROUND 3, HEAT 3

Alex Rodriguez (Mariners, Rangers, Yankees)

Unlikable Traits:
- Apparently likes to kiss himself in the mirror.
- Known steroid user who continues to maintain his innocence.
- Has received two of the largest contracts in the history of sports and spent a good chunk of them suspended for steroid use or injured.
- Apparently wants to keep every home run ball he ever hits and bribes fans to get them (I witnessed this in person when he hit a homer at the K last year. Someone a few feet away from me caught it and some security guards came and said Rodriguez was offering him a signed bat or basically whatever he wanted for the ball. This was not even a landmark home run - it was like #672 or something).
- His ex claims that he had not one, but two portraits of himself as a centaur in his home.
- Cheated on his wife with Madonna.
- Slapped Bronson Arroyo's glove while he was trying to tag him out in the 2004 ALCS.
- Sent a ball boy to ask for women's phone numbers in the crowd during the 2012 ALCS.
- Yelled "I got it!" while running past an infielder on a pop-up in 2007.



Jeff Samardzija (Cubs, A's, White Sox, Giants)

Unlikable Traits:
- Instigates brawls and tries to fight everyone on the other team, including coaches.
- Intentionally hit Lorenzo Cain with a pitch immediately after giving up a home run to Mike Moustakas. You'd think he'd be used to giving up home runs by now.
- Has stupid hair.
- Has stupid mustache/stupid goatee depending on his stupid mood.
- Has a stupid face on top of a 2-foot-tall stupid neck.
- Has a nearly un-spellable last name.
- Got a 5-year/$90 million contract this offseason after posting an ERA of nearly 5.00 last year.








Yordano Ventura (Royals)

Unlikable Traits:
- Extremely talented but not very mentally stable.
- Involved in multiple brawls.
- Cocky.
- Runs his mouth.
- Sucks at pitching now.







Troy Tulowitzki (Rockies, Blue Jays)

Unlikable traits:
- Instigated a brawl in the ALDS last year after the Rangers' pitcher slapped him on the butt and he took offense. KC Connection will be along shortly to explain how this was Rafael Palmeiro's fault, cause he took steroids.
- Is named "Troy Tulowitzki."
- Has used Miley Cyrus for walk-up music.
- Plays for the Toronto Blue Jays.
- KC Connection probably likes him.
- Had a mullet while playing for Colorado.

Tulowitzki holding his own in a surprising battle for second place with A-Rod here.

How predictable.

From an unbiased perspective Yordano Ventura would be top 3 easy.

Ya know, I've heard people say that about like 12 different guys now. How can there be so many that are "top 3 easy" or "definitely #1" or "definite final four" when there are this many players to dislike?
