Player nicknames and catch phrases

[ESP47]

I know the starting lineups on the home page show player nicknames but what other ones do you guys use? Also do you guys use any catch phrases for certain hitters? Some of these are from my childhood and others are more recently since I actually found another human in real life that plays this game. Most of these are dumb and/or make no sense.

Rich Gedmen - Chet Gedmen
Kevin Bass - "Kick his ass K-Bass" (almost never said since he sucks)
Mookie Wilson - "M-M-M-M-Mookie!"
Gary Carter - Dead
Lee Mazilli - Leo Mazzone
Candy Maldonado - Candy Mold-a-dildo
Willie McGee - Wet Biscuit McGee
Steve Lake - Carnell Lake
Don Mattingly - "MaGlintly!"
Jose Canseco - Beaner Canseco
Eric Davis - Ass cancer
Mike Schmidt "You just got Schmidt on"

[Gantry]

Poor Gary Carter

[BeefMaster]

I had not thought of the name "Carnell Lake" in many years.

[Gantry]

Nor had I, quality player

[Nacho]

I, too, call Gedman Che t(for Chet Stedman).

[BeefMaster]

I run across far too few "Rookie of the Year" references these days, too.

[BDawk]

I run across far too few "Rookie of the Year" references these days, too.

I think we've agreed on this but Rookie of the Year is far inferior to Little Big League in terms of bad kids baseball movies

I run across far too few "Rookie of the Year" references these days, too.

a couple of my friends are frequently talking about some actor/celeb/character in a show or movie that I've never heard of whose name is Steadman or something close.  I always mention that Chet Steadman would be a much better topic of discussion.

I need to rewatch it, I suppose, but I don't think of Little Big League as a "bad" movie (although I do agree it was much better than Rookie of the Year).

[Gantry]

Never got into either movie, I feel like I was a little too old for them
