Re: Which player gives you THE FEAR

Agree with those mentioning Sale. I end up pretty much guessing and hacking when I face him. I did end up chasing him with a relatively big inning during my second time around with the lineup once. Felt pretty good. lol Lester's another lefty who I struggle against but I ended up eventually feeling a bit more comfortable against him since my position player's career started with the Brewers and he seemed to start in every damned series we'd play against the Cubs.

Kershaw OTOH has been relatively hit-able in my experience. I'm better able to work counts against him than I'd expect and he usually ends up giving you something to work with rather than walking you when he falls behind.

From the 2015 game it's Ichiro no doubt. Doesn't hit it out of the park but he would never come up with 2 outs and no one on base either. Can't pitch him away. Can't jam him inside. He always came up in critical situations and got the big hit against me

Huge White Sox fan. Most of the time I play the game, I use them. First time I ever faced Sale was recently using updated rosters. I scored 2 or 3 runs in the first and then he dominated me the rest of the game.

Well, at least he cant seem to stay healthy, so it could be a LOT worse.
Years ago it was Ryan Howard, but I havent feared him in forever.

As someone who plays with the Rangers, Kyle Seager & Mike Trout are two guys I really hate to face.

Miguel Cabrera. In my Twins franchise he would give me nightmares.

Re: Which player gives you THE FEAR

Cubs are one of many teams i use. So when Heyward signed there i was ecstatic. Dude absolutely owns me in every facet.

I absolutely cant hit syndergaard or any reliever who throws submarine style.

Re: Which player gives you THE FEAR

For years it was Nick Swisher. And it happened 99% of the time when I was playing my best friend who was a Yankees fan. He would literally laugh in my face every time. I celebrated when Swisher retired and was out of The Show. One time my friend and I went to a real Yankees Marlins game and we had to leave the game early due to a prior commitment. When it was nearing the time we had set to leave Swisher came to bat and I said "That's it, we're leaving now, let's go." And we got up to leave in the middle of swishers at bat. As we're walking away I jokingly refused to look back at the field and my friend says to me "Hey come on, let's watch, just one more pitch, literally one more pitch, what's the worst that could happen?" I said ok just one more pitch, we turned around and swisher homered on that one next pitch. The insane laughter that came out of my friend at that unbelievable moment is a sound that still plays in my mind from time to time. Sadly that friend passed away 3 years later. Had to share that story because it really started with The Show.
