Would never have guessed your least favorite to be a lefty.  Frankly I like Boggs since he actually IS the only lefty in the Boston lineup, which means your opponent has no idea how to pitch to him when he comes up, so he winds up getting a meaty pitch and drilling it.

I hate Wade Boogs because of how he plays against me, not because of how I play with him.  He absolutley crushes me...

I hate Gary Carter. It always seems like he should be doing so much more. Plus, I've never seen him come through in a clutch situation.

Carter is very streaky.  Lot of 0-5 games with 5 ground outs.  But in contrast, there are times for me where nobody can get the guy out.  He'll him bomb after bomb, and even when he makes poor contact, the ball will find a hole in the infield for a hit.  It's all or nothing with Carter.  Very weird.

I'm surprised that Gantry would select a lefty as least favorite as well.  There's just so many bad righties to choose from...

I like Carter since he hits a lot of singles for me.  And all I really want is someone on base when the straw man comes to the plate.  I will admit that I do expect more power from him though.

I hate Lou Whitaker. He pisses me off. (the man can bunt, though)

Actually he hit a clutch grand slam for me last night to win the game against my brother. Other than that, I've never had good luck with him
Fernando Valenzuela can play every position, including the umpire, and does every night of the week, and nothing can stop him.

you must have cheated

How can you cheat in RBI? lol There are no codes, and there are no game genie codes  that improve hitting to my knowlege.

It's harder to win when you play by the rules...

Which rules? I play anything goes pitching, can only use one starter per game (because we play series) basically mlb rules with the exception of the one starter, because they only give you two.

There are some out there who have seen cheaters in RBI. I'll let them stand up.

PHole, the "cheater" reference is a running joke on the boards.  Someone was playing JoeDirt online for a little while then one game he left in the middle out of frustration.  When Joe asked about it on the boards, he basically said that Joe was throwing unhittable pitches on the corners, making the game no fun so he left.  Since then we jokingly call him a cheater...

JoeDirt

Oh, it's just a joke?  My shrink will be unhappy to hear this...perhaps I can end the sessions now.

Although Eric Davis is very good on the game, and is my favorite all-time player, Ruppert Jones is my favorite on RBI.  I don't play too often w/all-star teams, I guess.

I hate Wade Boggs and Calvin Schiraldi equally.

Boggs because he always kills me
Schiraldi because he always stinks for me

Yeah, Ryno can start it up as a Cubs thread  ;)

It's been discussed, kind of a "essential Dee-Nee reading" thread.  It's a great idea, but I'm not about to do it...

We should also make a "Hall of Fame" section of the site for threads with, say, more than 50 responses.

there are also folks complaining about the lack of Bobby Grich, Dwight Evans, and Willie Randolph.
