February 26, 201412 yr People always crush me for this, but it's easily Eric Davis. Went to a game when I was a kid. Riding in the car with my Dad & a couple of family friends. Davis was my favorite player. We're listening to the pre-game & Marty says that Davis will miss the game because of a hangnail. I've hated him ever since.
February 26, 201412 yr I never did like Ray Knight though that may be magnified by his role in Game 6 of the 1986 Series.

People have such revisionist memories when it comes to Eric Davis and Paul O'Neill, both weren't all that popular in their playing days. Eric was incredibly fragile ("must be Italian") and Paulie would step in the bucket so badly against lefties it made your eyes hurt. Plus, the latter had some famous plays in the field that weren't exactly Gold Glove-esque. Once Paul went to the Yankees and became a star everyone "loved him" and wondered why they ever dealt him. Cracked me up.
February 26, 201412 yr Adam Dunn, Danny Graves, Jimmy Haynes, Jim Edmonds....Hated them all, can't pick just one.
February 26, 201412 yr Somebody help me out with Jim Edmonds. I'm not a Reds fan, so there may be something I'm missing (aside from being a big part of some good Cardinal teams), but how can he be so hated after only playing in Cincinnati for less than 2 months?? I'm struggling to remember him even playing for the Reds.

February 26, 201412 yr He hated to be playing for Cincinnati. Fair enough. Kinda why I'm not a big fan of Scott Rolen for the way he left the Phillies.
February 26, 201412 yr Jay Bruce Really? Why? Bruce has always been very fan friendly from what I've seen.
