I don't have one because I like a real sport like football. So,none of these overpaid steroid pumped fools are a favorite of mine.

Nolan Ryan, he was a great pitcher.

For me it's a toss up between Mariano Rivera and Derek Jeter.

I have a few, but my favorite would probably have to be Jeff Francoeur. He's the nicest guy I've ever met. He's not like some of the guys who think their the sh*t and don't sign for anyone. Jeff would sign for every person who came into a game if they all stood in line to get his autograph. He may not be the best, but he's defiantly not the worse and he's so good with the fans. Best of all has one of the best cannons in the game today.

Joe Bover... played for the A's when i was a kid and signed my mitt for me, i was hunting for a Mark McGuire or Jose Canseco at the time, but i was happy to have someone sign it!

Of all time, Pete Rose, in today's game, I go for the unsung hero types who just shut up and play, try hard every day, play through injuries and don't try to get unwarranted attention for themselves. Guys like Benji Molina in SF, or Marc Ellis in Oakland. I think my favorite guy today though is Ichiro Suzuki, the guy is a hit machine.

Brian Roberts!
by 4747 on September 25th, 2007
Currently playing, A.J. Pierzynski. Might not be the nicest guy in the world (those reports otherwise are quite exaggerated), but I like his attitude. "Nicest" baseball player would go to Jim Thome.
by Cowboy-Matter of Fact on May 5th, 2007
Lance Berkman, cuz he is real, no ego, just a regular dude like you and me. He could be the local grocer or the meter reader, or the postman, wouldn't matter, he would be the same. Gotta love a multi-millionaire without over-inflated ego, rare thing these days.

by Aintthatapip - Kevonian Overlord on July 3rd, 2008
The single most dominant man to step foot on the diamond, and my all time favorite player is Pedro Martinez.
Being a Sox fan my favorite player right now is Lars Anderson(power hitting 1b in minor leagues) future AL MVP.
by Anonymous on March 14th, 2008
As much as he is hated i love Shea Hillenbrand. More favorites are Jacoby Ellsbury, Dustin Pedroia, Nomar Garciaparra, and Pedro Martinez

Jabba Chamberlain for the NY Yankees. Struck out 12 in less than 6 innings last night but took the loss. He's just made the starting rotation this Spring and needs to completely adjust.

by TheKnife V2.1 - Grandiose and Obnoxious on May 6th, 2007
Slightly biased here as a Bluejays fan (but then I expect everyone else is picking players from their favorite clubs too so maybe I have nothing to apologise for), but mine would be Roy Halladay... he is just so hard to hit, just being out on the mound relaxes his teammates so much, he is such a great leader by example. He is uncomplicated, doesn't look to strike out 15 batters every game, just goes about the business of getting outs and winning games and does it better than most other pitchers in the game. Also gotta love his loyalty for sticking with the Jays since he debuted in 1998 and not cashing in on his huge market value by testing free agency with another club.
