who are your favorite current MLB players?

Love Rowdy--and yes, makes even more sense on the Brewers than Jays.

I suppose Alek Manoah's my favourite right now. For a non-Jay, maybe Yordan Álvarez.

Baez when he was at his peak was amazing to see. Bryant and Rizzo, too — glad Rizzo is doing solidly well in NYC, and Bryant I don’t think has lost his skills, it’s just a matter of staying on the field. I hope he hits 40+ HR in Denver this season.

Ronald and Ozzie, baseball's best bromance the last 2-3 years.

oh joey votto of course, seems like even as his play has declined he's started to figure out how to be himself and exhibit his personality in fun ways

scherzer is a good one, i appreciate his psycho intensity for sure

Love Ozzie

Tatis is a lot of fun but at the same time he’s been gone a year and has made some idiotic mistakes, I hope he’s young enough to both have learned from them and continue on his trajectory.

yea Votto is a cool dude, hope he can revert to his 2021 form for another year. I was gonna name him but actually thought he might have retired lol

I am now fully into Nootbaar cos of his adorable WBC coverage and reading up on him! Guy seems like a gem and he’s still pretty young! Insanely cute friendship with Ohtani!

Oh and Teoscar! I really liked him even when he was on the Blue Jays last postseason and I’m so happy he’s a Mariner now!

hmmm probably Judge.

Adopted, pretty humble, good sense of humor*, grew up in a farm town (outside of Stockton), played college ball in another farmtown (Fresno), signed to the Yankees (who completely fucked him by keeping him out of the majors for almost 3 seasons), hit a HR in his first MLB at-bat, then did some other stuff after that I think.... but basically a farm kid who not only made it in NYY but become the best hitter in the game is the stuff of legends.

*during his insane April of his rookie season, he did a "man on the street" segment on Fallon with the high sophisticated disguise of... a pair of Clark Kent glasses (he's 6'7"/280#).

Everyone mentioned rules.

Triston McKenzie is my fav pitcher currently and i hope he doesnt break.

Mookie is the illest.

The decaying generation of pitchers who have started throwing slop are always welcome (Kershaw, Rich Hill)

My wiiiife thinks all the round dudes are hilarious so i am partial to the tellez/vogelbach/kirk bowling ball army because they amuse her and therefore amuse me.

Always like Teoscar a lot too. Alejandro Kirk is another dude I adore.

Mookie is the illest.

xp was gonna say

Also Nestor
