If you're up for reading some total nonsense go here to the Sports Illustrated website.They held a poll to find out who 464 big league baseball players thought were the "friendliest" and "least friendly" players in the game.
You could probably guess in 000.2 seconds that Barry Bonds was voted the least friendly. That's a given. The picture they have of him however, is brilliant.
Now, to the bullcrap. The friendliest baseball player in the world is not only not Joe Mauer, he's not even on the list."Hi. I'm Joe Mauer. I befriended a blind kid at Cretin-Derham Hall (where I only struck out one time) and walked him to and from class everyday because I'm just that type of guy. Plus, I have awesome sideburns and I'm friends with Hall of Famer Paul Molitor".Does it get any friendlier? Oh, apparently it does.
I guess all you need to do to be viewed as MLB's friendliest ballplayer is to play in one of the un-friendliest cities in the country and walk around 24/7 with a goofy-ass look on your face.

For once, I shall unfortunately have to disagree with you ladies.
Sean Casey's one of the "nice guys" in the MLB - apparently he's great to have around in the clubhouse, and he does good charity work . . . he's had this reputation for a while around the majors and I think it's well deserved.
Oh, I wasn't completely serious. Lots of MLB players do tons of great things to help out their communities. It's awesome.
I was just being a Tiger-hating Twins fans... in a half-joking kind of way. ;)
