Can you defeat Villainy? LEAGUE # WHEN WE HAVE 20 IN
Rules:
Salary Cap: $230mil (Villainy's payroll is higher) --- They are villains what do you expect?
DH: Yes
AAA: No
Trades: No
Players: Any players from the WIFS database sans the players on Villainy, which are exclusive. NO CLONES.
Ballparks: One iteration per owner…first come first serve. Villainy will play at Fenway Park.
Villainy is a team assembled of some of the most ornery, meanest and nastiest players from baseball’s past time. I will run villainy unless another player wants to, in that case they will be able to. If more than one does, we will randomly choose one via random.org and I will choose an opposing team to face them.
Please do not SM or post that you want to change players. This is Villainy. Either run them as is or pick your own team.
Pitchers
SP: Eddie Cicotte: Ace of the infamous Black Sox who threw the World Series for money. Lifetime baseball ban.
SP: Roger Clemens: Cheater, head hunter, adulterer, perjurer. Had an affair with an underage country singer, who later committed suicide. Cantankerous personality.
SP: Randy Johnson: Mean, nasty, disliked by his teammates. Hated by reporters, to who he said speaking to was a “waste of time”. “I think he’s respected, certainly, in there,” said former Diamondbacks player, current television analyst and one-time Johnson teammate Mark Grace. “But I don’t think he’s going to get a big congratulatory card from these guys when he wins 300.”
P: Whit Wyatt: Joe DiMaggio called Wyatt “The meanest guy I ever saw”. Wyatt was notorious for head hunting.
P: Carl Mays: Notorious nasty individual and head hunter. Killed a player with a pitch to the head.
P: Ugueth Urbina: Mean and nasty persona on the field. Criminal off the field. Attacked five farm workers with a machete in native Venezuela. Served time in prison for the incident.
P: Rob Dibble: Part of the infamous Nasty Boys and he had the nastiest personality. Motivated by anger and temper tantrums.
P: Steve Howe: Banned from baseball for life for drug and alcohol abuse.
P: Aroldis Chapman: Beat up his girlfriend, fired a gun eight times in the air to scare her. Suspended 30 games by MLB for the incident.
P: Juan Marichal: Marichal was one of the principal figures in perhaps the most violent incident in major league history.
P: Eric Gagne: Cheater. Used steroids and HGH as he taunted and mocked the players he struck out.
P: Elton Chamberlain: Nicknamed "The Icebox" he was an avid boxing fan — but it got him into a couple of scrapes. Pled guilty to aiding and abetting an illegal prize fight. Notorious tough guy and bar room brawler.
Hitters
C: King Kelly: Drunk and a cheater (often cutting off bases as he ran). Would miss games due to drinking or play drunk.
1B: Cap Anson: A racist who refused to play exhibition games versus dark skinned players. He was also a notorious gambler who would bet on his own games.
2B: Rogers Hornsby: A straight laced player often despised by his teammates. He was as angry as mean as Ty Cobb according to contemporaries.
3B: John McGraw: Believed that only by mastering the rules could he circumvent them. Would wear wickedly sharpened spikes, try to knock the ball out of his opponents hand and would frequently abuse opposing players and umpires.
SS: Alex Rodriguez: A notorious liar, steroid user, cheater and overall poor clubhouse guy until later in his career. Notoriously cheated in the ALCS and tried to claim innocence after intentionally knocking the ball out of a pitchers hand.
OF: Ty Cobb: Need I say more?
OF: Barry Bonds: Home Run King, cheater, steroid user, awful teammate. Forever tainted baseball.
OF: Pete Rose: Hardnosed mean player. Bet on baseball. Lied. Lifetime Ban from Baseball.
C: AJ Pierzynski: By all accounts a mean player that many teammates hated. Once kneed a medic in the family jewels when the medic asked him how he felt after getting hit there by a baseball.
OF/1B: Hal Chase: When it comes to gambling on baseball and being a villain he made Pete Rose seem like a choir boy.
2B: Jose Offerman: Charged a pitcher with a bat, struck an umpire in a Dominican winter league where he received a lifetime ban.
3B: Gary Sheffield: Steroid and drug user. Cheater.
SS: Gary Templeton: Nasty player who gave a middle finger to his home fans. Forced a trade to SD from St. Louis due to his combative nature.
OF: Tris Speaker: Member of the KKK. Well known racist and religious bigot.
Stadium
Fenway Park: Red Sox were the last team to integrate. Cursed. The curse was broken in 2004 with the greatest comeback in baseball history.
