Mediocre players you liked for some reason

[williewilliejuan]

Majority of the 2010 SF Giants roster

Cody Ross!

 

[megalodon30]

Pokey Reese

Fielded the final out of the 2004 ALCS and the last time he was on a major league field was the final out of Game 4 of that World Series.

He signed with Seattle in 2005 for more than a million dollars and never played a game for them.

 

[megalodon30]

Mauricio Dubon (Giants) and DJ Wilson (NBA) are high on my list of current players, but that's just because they went to the same high school I did.

 

[Cedrique]

Cody Ross!

He's on my list of mediocre players I hated. And I sort of remember the reason.

 

[antone112]

Mike Mordecai. Sweet name (jewish beginning, asian ending) and a few memorable moments for the Braves.

 

[navamind]

Cody Ross!

Ross was one of the few enjoyable aspects of the 2012 Red Sox season. My favorite Ross moment (after a good duel between Buchholz/Quintana):

 

[navamind]

A lot of Tigers fans would say Doug Fister. Only played 3 seasons there but his trade was the beginning of the end

He was pretty damn good from 2011-14

 

[YourFriendGannon]

Randy Winn. I had a soft spot for the expansion Rays, he's been an unconditional favorite of mine since.

 

[DragonfromTO]

Lloyd Moseby. The Shaker was my first "favourite player" and was super underrated.

 

[Pure Steel]

Chipper Jones.....

 

[msgkings322]

Does Pablo Sandoval count as mediocre? He is now, but he wasn't always. Anyway, him. Love that guy.

Scott Podsednik

Angel Pagan

Chet Lemon same for me

 

[DragonfromTO]

Chet Lemon same for me

Yep, Chet was similarly underrated. Guys that do everything well but do nothing spectacularly always get that (although Chet had a better career than Moseby did).

 

[Trudem]

I had an insane fondness for Joe Crede. I thought he was a clutch hitter and a good fielder until his back started giving out on him

 

[Used 2 B Hu]

BENNY AGBAYANI!!!

 

[thedddd]

How can I forget the The Hit Man from Cleveland Mike Easler.

 

[foster4prez]

The man himself - Nyjer Morgan. AKA Tony Plush.

certainly one of the more aggressive baserunners I've seen. Pretty good fielder too

He played super aggressive and out of control. Frustrating but fun to watch. Especially on those 100 loss Nats teams.

Red Sox have been pretty aggressive on the basepaths the last few years. It's definitely had it's ups and downs...
