Best and Worst Nicknames in the game

[Dan Lambskin]

Worst: First letter of first name + First syllable of last name

Stupid, easy, uncreative. I miss the days of Cool Papa Bell and Piano Legs Gore.

K-rod is worse than A-rod. K-rod doesn't even have a K in his name...

The "K" is for strikeout

right...same reason Dice-K became Dice-BB

[Inukchuk]

Worst: First letter of first name + First syllable of last name

Felix Hernandez disagrees.

[lastingsgriller]

I like "the heymaker" for jason Heyward..

[BitterDodgerFan]

clayton "i'm gonna walk you" kershaw?

[StlSluggers]

worst: say hey kid.

Worst: First letter of first name + First syllable of last name

Those.

And I actually like Death to Flying Things, although it doesn't really roll off the tongue.

[moose32]

The best is obviously the Big Donkey for Adam Dunn

[thejusman1]

Best:

Ben Zobrist - Zorilla

Worst:

James Shields - Big Game James

[gnarboots11]

Who the hell calls james sheilds big game james? That's a downright rip off from the true legend that is big game james worthy. What a pathetic attempt at a nickname, I am angered by this.

Bestests
Mike Napoli - Snacks
Kendry Morales - Bam Bam
Garret Anderson - Lunchbox

[AquaMan2342]

Best: Franklin "Great Defensive Centerfielder" Gutierrez

[rookies and cream]

Worst: First letter of first name + First syllable of last name
