Why he might be annoying:

    He is a switch hitter.
    His surname is hard to spell.
    He turned down a multi-year contract extension because he felt the offer the Rangers were giving him was less money then he wanted.
    He allegedly butted heads with his manager Ron Washington, which may have been a factor in his trade.
    He named Scott Boras as his agent.

    In addition to playing his natural position of first base, he also played third base and the outfield on occasion.
