Without looking, I think Nolan Ryan is a safe bet.

Katon · 08-06-2005, 10:31 AM

Eddie Collins, definitely.

Let me check out there Jeremys...

~~Jeremy Affeldt~~ - Who?

~~Jeremy Fikac~~ - Who? #2...His only saving grace is that he was born in Shiner, Texas...home of Shiner Bock!

~~Jeremy Hill~~ - Who? #3

~~Jeremy Guthrie~~ - Not in the Bigs...

~~Jeremy Powell~~ - He sucked major huevos...

~~Jeremy Griffiths~~ - Positive, he's an Astro. Negative, he's not in The Bigs..and he's sucked the two times he has been called up.

~~Jeremy Giambi~~ - Sorry, I'm not gonna name a 'roid freak as the best player with my name. Plus, he pretty much sucked.

~~Jeremy Reed~~ - Put up some decent numbers in 18 games for Seattle last year, but his average is considerably worse this year.

~~Jeremy Hernandez~~ - He was a decent middle reliever but didn't stick around long enough to win me over.

~~Jeromy Burnitz~~ - The only Jeremy to be an All-Star would have been a shoo-in except that his parents didn't know how to spell his fucking name properly...

Jeremy Bonderman - Almost lost 20 games as a rookie but he has gotten considerably better every year since. Actually has a winning record this year at 13-7 with a 4.03 ERA. We have a winner!

Greg Maddux is about the only one I can think of, which isn't too bad.

I go along with this one also,

pitching triple crown in 1888

W-L 35-12 ERA - 1.74 Strikeouts - 335

Mike Schmidt

Simms · 08-06-2005, 01:54 PM

Randall Simon or Simon Pond.

McSweeny · 08-06-2005, 02:15 PM

James "Cool Papa" Bell
Jim Bunning
Jim Palmer
Jim Rice
Jim Thome

they're all pretty good, but i think some guy named Jimmie Foxx wins hands down

Logan · 08-06-2005, 03:27 PM

Logan Drake - 18.7 career innings pitched from 1922-1924.

Logan Easley - 2-1 in stints with Pittsburgh in 1987 and 1989.

Logan Kensing - Rookie with the Marlins. 9.88 ERA.

I plead the fifth.

HOFer Josh Gibson. Gotta love it.

Poli · 08-06-2005, 05:44 PM

Some guy named Rod Carew.

I'm gonna have to go with Roy Weatherly, although my name isn't Roy.

Terps · 08-06-2005, 10:24 PM

Dennis Eckersley.

Shares my middle name too, so that gives him the nod over the other player who also shares my middle name, Denny Hocking.

RPI-Fan · 08-06-2005, 10:52 PM

Kyle Farnsworth, Kyle Lohse, or, a borderline one, Daryl Kile.

If that latter counts, I'll go with him, if not, I need some help picking!

I'm going last names, since I can claim the legendary Max Venable.

MrBug708 · 08-07-2005, 10:55 AM

Kyle Abbott. Which is kinda funny because growing up, I lived on Abbot St.

Huckleberry · 08-07-2005, 07:14 PM

There has never been a major league baseball player with either my first name or my last name.

And his son Will is playing minor league baseball after a career playing basketball at Princeton.
