The best and worst of MLB player tweets, vol. 1 E-mail
Written by Bob Taylor   
Thursday, 04 February 2010 21:01

More and more major leaguers are joining the ranks of Twitter and tweeting away about everything under the sun -- their workout routines, the quality of the hotel they're staying in, whatever. You can learn a lot about a player from their tweets, way more than you ever could from the back of a baseball card. For example ...

-- Matt Holliday has terrible, terrible taste in music. People who enjoying Creed need to be mocked. I don't care how many runs they drove in last year.

-- Joel Hanrahan likes to tweet while he drives (which may or may not be scarier than the site of him taking the mound in the ninth ... ba-dum-dum) and isn't adverse to throwing some money around at the nearest casino. Hey, Hanrahan, I live in Pittsburgh and have been known to play a little poker. Any time you want to sit for some no-limit hold'em at Rivers Casino, you just give me a yell. Although I can't go higher than $2-$5 blinds unless Dotel wants to stake me.

-- MLB 2K10 coverboy Evan Longoria is a Call of Duty fan. I bet he's a no-good fucking camper. Put down the sniper rifle, Longoria, and grow a set!

-- Nick Swisher tweets almost as often as he draws a walk. Seriously, that dude is on there constantly. When does he find the time to perfect that fauxhawk?

-- C.J. Wilson is another one who tweets regularly. He's got almost 13,000 followers, although my theory is that most of them are chicks who like to swoon over that dreamy background photo. I wish I could rock a soul patch that hard.

-- Mark Teahen knows his new team is a lot better than his old one (as well as how to take a joke).

I just lost so much respect for Holliday.

It's like the guy at my work who does a great job, but keeps talking about how "awesome" the newest Nickleback album is and how he can listen to it from start to end. Jesus people, keep this crap to yourselves.
