This is a pretty good question.  I'd say either Willie Randolph or Sandberg.

Overall suckiness, I'd say Buckner. He truly sucks.

Taking into account batting position, Walling. Dear God.

The worst non-8 hitter can't be a lefty in our straight pitch world.  With that said, NO WAY Buckner is worse than Marty Barrett, who is my pick...

Post by: BeefMaster on 07/11/06, 09:41:41 AM
Off the top of my head...

Ford
Gagne
Herndon
Barrett
Uribe

I think Uribe is the worst - I expect him to be fast, since he's the leadoff man, and he can't hit or run well.

agreed Beefy, Uribe is a major disappointment

I agree Uribe isn't good, but he's better than Backman for cryin' out loud...as is Barrett.

Could not agree more.  Backman is absolute dogshit.  In fact the only player in the entire game worse than Backman is Santana. 

Here is my worst 10 list (non 8-hitter):

Backman
Rndlph
Barret
Davidsn
Gwynn
Franco
Molitor
JUribe
Herdnon
Lake

Obviously PH's w/o the PH bonus.

Let's face it, there is a long list of RBIers that we hate to see come up in almost any situation.

You shut the fuck up about Tommy Herr.

Look at him in 1985. He's a very good contact hitter, and good stealer. So don't mess with him, and I got one: Denny Walling (750 POW). I'm still convinced that was a typo, and they meant 850 power.

he was a great stealer, and whitey herzog was great use a speed strategery that copulated many speed teams of the '60s.

Heh. Copulated
