    Worst Human Being To Ever Play MLB?

    Okay, all known evidence taken into consideration, who is the worst excuse for a person to have ever played the game?
    My dad got to enjoy 3 Reds World Championships by the time he was my age. So far, I've only gotten to enjoy one. Step it up Redlegs!

    Hornsby, by most accounts was a bit of a prick too. I chose Tyrus Raymond Cobb. I read the Al Stump book, he was a fairly miserable son-of-a-gun.

    Rogers Hornsby, Hal Chase, Dick Allen, and Chick Gandil need to be options on this poll.

    Don't think so, though I think the mods can edit the poll.

    Cobb went into the stands and attacked a fan. A fan with no hands.

    I'd say that makes him a miserable SOB.

    I agree. My vote will probably go to Cobb or Chase, although everyone mentioned sure is deserving.

    Cobb was a horrible, horrible person. Reading his famed autobiography done near the end of his life was literally a nightmarish look into a diseased, disturbed mind.
    Yet, despite this, I voted for Cap Anson. Though he was not souly responsible, he was one of those very responsible for turning baseball into a one dimensional game until 1947.

    That wouldn't look to good if Pete was on this poll on this website.
