Baseball Player

The Resume

    (March 12, 1971- )
    Right Fielder for the Atlanta Braves (2005), Pittsburgh Pirates (2004), Arizona Diamondbacks (2004), New York Yankees (2002-2003), Toronto Blue Jays (2000-2002) and Los Angeles Dodgers (1993-1999)

Why he might be annoying:

    Joe Torre demanded his trade after he left Fenway Park in the middle of the game, because he was furious that Ruben Sierra pinched hit for him.
    He told the New York media that he doesn't want to play for the New York Yankees in 2004 after Joe Torre scratched him from the starting lineup.
    In March 2003, he was fined by the New York Yankees for returning late from a trip home to the Dominican Republic.
    In 2002, Forbes Magazine listed him as the 2nd most overpaid baseball player.
    His former Los Angeles Dodgers teammates nicknamed him 'Buffalo,' because he would continually miss meetings and show up late for practices.
    He was arrested in 1998 for driving under the influence of alcohol. When he eventually returned to the Dodger lineup, fans kept booing him.
    He earned the 'Jerk of the Week' award for the week ending July 4, 1998.
    He has tattoos.
    Claiming family problems he quit the Pirates, but a few weeks later, he signed with the Angels (2004).

Why he might not be annoying:

    In 2001, he became the first Blue Jay player ever to steal home plate. He stole home off former New York Yankees pitcher Randy Keisler.
    He has one of the best arms in baseball, and runners rarely will take an extra base if he fields the ball.
    He was NL Rookie of the Year in 1994.
    He was a 30-30 (home runs & stolen base) player twice.
    He supplies uniforms and baseball equipment for the Raúl Mondesí League in the Dominican Republic.
    He has sponsored many softball and basketball leagues.
