Bases Loaded, Bottom of the 9th, your team is down 3 runs...

Question

Who wouldn't you want on your team to bat in that situation?

Answer 1

kosuke fukudome

Answer 2

Andruw Jones

Answer 3

This is kind of an interesting question. I mean, it's cool that we are thinking outside the box, but most times probably have close to a dozen guys you wouldn't want to bat. I agree the Andruw Jones is seriously a horrible clutch hitter.

For my team, though, which, happen to be the Braves, this is sort of a tough question. Chipper and McCann are certainly two I'd really like to have at the plate. I guess Francouer is probably the big name guy I really wouldn't want batting. If he falls behind in the count he really tends to struggle.

Answer 4

A-Rod...He's never a clutch performer...On my team Chase Utley...He's good and all,but he's not much of a clutch performer.

Answer 5

Chone Figgins he is good but just does not have that much power

Answer 6

Angels: Juan Rivera...he sucks

Answer 7

White Sox, Jaun Uribe.  He has been better of late, but not that much better.

Answer 8

The entire San Diego Padres line up

Answer 9

Jacoby Ellsbury or Alex Cora I guess.

Julio Lugo for sure, but he's hurt so we don't have to worry about that anymore.  

Answer 10

Jeff Francoer... He's Done it before and i was there but now he's a huge D-Bag and needs to quit baseball. It might be because he went to Parkview High School.

Answer 11

On my team? This season, Jeff Francoeur. He has been absolutely awful with bases loaded this year. Last year he was really clutch, but this year, he definitely gets my vote for "last person I would want to see batting with the game on the line"

Answer 12

adam laroche

Answer 13

Yes

Answer 14

Jason Varitek

Answer 15

On the Angels, easily Gary Matthews Jr.

the guy who said Figgins is an idiot....who cares if he doesn't have power, how many times have you seen someone score from first on a double?  if you're down by 3, a double would tie the game and give you a good shot to win.

Answer 16

Adam Everett...fighting to keep over .200

Answer 17

Um... From the Orioles, Cintron; he's not exactly "clutch".

From the Rangers, I don't think I'd trust Gerald Laird to deliver a game-winning hit.

Answer 18

Andruw Jones or Alex Rodriguez.

Answer 19

Andruw Jones, I rather have a little leaguer bat than him.

Answer 20

Mr. Ryan Zimmerman. I hope that everyone saw how clutch the kid is earlier in the year against the Braves'. The best part is he is only 23 years old. My second pick would be Jesus Flores, He too is 23 years old and is our 3rd best hitter already, he had so many clutch hits last year and this year, just ask any Nationals Fan.  

Answer 21

I'm a Mariners fan...so it's easier to just say anyone except Ichiro or Raul Ibanez.

Answer 22

Anyone. D'Backs can't hit

Answer 23

Probably Brian Schneider, that guy is just terrible.

Answer 24

Manny Ramirez. He'd hit a home run and then miss first base.

Answer 25

Ryan Garko

Answer 26

andruw jones, terrible year

Answer 27

I would definately not want Luis Castillo to bat because he basically lost his swing and he now chops at the ball.

Answer 28

Varitek, lacks that clutch he used to have so long ago.

Answer 29

Castillo (NY Mets)

Answer 30

Juan Uribe.
