If I was making fricking 20 million dollars a year to play a sport, you better believe I would look happy too.

Ryan Zimmerman.

Incredibly popular in DC (from VA), just got locked down with a long contract that is paying him WAY TOO MUCH, smoking hot fiance and 0 pressure to win... DC doesnt expect anything out of the Nats, at least for now

He is very happy.

nick swisher (swish) is definately one of my favorite players. he's old school too. my understanding is he is a good person; down to earth, honest and respectful. truly the kind of guy you wish your dgt would meet.

he's genuinely a fantastic guy. Always happy. Haven't heard one bad word about him yet.

That said, there's some terrible answers elsewhere in this thread.

Does it have to be a major leaguer?

If not, it would be this guy: LINK

Brian Wilson sucks

Big Papi
Berkman

Carlos Lee and Soriano actually both have a lot of fun. Sit in the left field bleachers at Wrigley and you'll understand

There is an urban legend about Franceour back when he was in high school. He played for Parkview and hit a walkoff homer in the state playoffs that went over the treeline in left field at my high school. Some people claim the homer went well over 500 feet.

I also saw Franceour in the minors at Myrtle Beach. I have a signed piece of a bat that he broke during the game. Even though he had a terrible game, he was incredibly nice and stayed and signed autographs for everyone.

Interesting fact, Fredi Gonzalez and Roger McDowell live in new homes built beyond left field at Lassiter where Franceour hit the mammoth walk-off. Also, supposedly McDowell has complained about baseball entering his backyard. I just that find that a major league baseball coach would complain about that, especially since he bought a house right behind a ballfield.
