RBI's All-Time Team - 2B - Lou Whitaker

[vgp100]

I always love when they're loaded up on ether, walking into Circus Circus.
If you read the book after seeing the movie, it's impossible not to hear Johnny Depp's voice as Raul Duke during the monologue.

worse than marc sullivan?  that fudger can't even spell his name right.

Sully sucks no doubt.  But I think RoThom is worse for two reasons.

1.  Sully is a pinch hitter and Robbie is a starter.
2.  You know Sully's sucks from his stats.  RoThomp's stats are misleading causing you to think that maybe he's just in a slump.  When the slump lasts 10 years you finally realize he's a dud.

[fknmclane]

My buddy once hit two homers in two games in a row with Sullivan.  We were playing a five game series and needless to say, Sully was the MVP.  Both his homers sealed the games.  I hate Sullivan.

[Gantry]

I agree, Sullivan can get you the pinch-hit dinger.  Thompson is way worse.  But IMHO the worst player in RBI is......

Steve Lake

God he sucks...

[Glassjoe]

wow...that's interesting.  I wouldn't say he's close to good or anything, but not sure I'd say he's the worst.

Clearly this will have to be our next poll question.  

FYI...I don't think Sully is the worst, either...he just was first to come to mind when somebody said Robby T was.

Off of the top of my head, I'd say Santana is the worst.

[Gantry]

Santana is complete ass, but I have a special spot in my heart for Steve Lake.  Both have equally poor resumes...

[Vitb6]

Sweet Lou

[Lips]

Is no one gonna comment on the Potsie picture?  I mean seriously...did all the Jack Daniels permanently alter your hair color?

By the way, I'm all Detroit...all day.

[Gantry]

Don't worry lips, it's his main profile pic now.  That picture will never die, Dee-Nee!

[Attezz]

I'm not sure what's more impressive, the fact that there were 28 votes for a poll about RBI baseball, or the fact that it was so decisive.

EDIT: It should be noted that the "Warnig: 120 days" thing doesn't seem to be working.

[fknmclane]

Billy Doran would receive my 2nd place vote.

[TempoGL]

i'm a doran man, although i apparently voted for someone else at some point...i might have been the wally backman.  either that or the puhl is closed.

[Attezz]

If a choice is bold, that's who you voted for.

[fknmclane]

If a choice is bold, that's who you voted for.

Then even though he has zero votes, I voted for Barrett.

[TempoGL]

apparently i didn't vote.  is the puhl closed?

[BDawk]

Thompson

[Big Hath]

I am a little surprised at the lack of discussion over Potsie's photo.

[ultimate7]

Yeah, ShitPaw would lock these puhls after the results were finished.  Man 2B is a crappy position for RBI

[Big Hath]

Yeah, I didn't realize how bad it was until I saw the actual names.

[ultimate7]

Even with the All-stars you are just adding Sandberg and Randolph, it's like they did a 2B power subtraction
