You don't know who Craig counsell is? Yet you claim to have been watching baseball since you were a kid? He's like the most distinctive batting stance of all time.

Outside of the big three AL teams and maybe the cubs they are one of the best teams in the league. But they never seem to keep it together in the playoffs.

tbf last year we gave Yuli Gurriel nuclear heat in game 6 but that was in response to a much more recent incident. Mainstream baseball press hasn’t mentioned Hader’s tweets at all this October so people forget

He was notable for having a goofy batting stance but spent his entire career (albeit a long one) in the NL. It's entirely understandable why someone who follows the AL might not remember him as he was very mediocre.

He was also notable for walking fewer times in his career than Bonds did in his final season.

He also almost set the record for longest hitless streak at 45 AB, just 1 short of Bill Bergen.
