This morning on MSN.com, Fox Sports had one of the lead stories. The hottest men in baseball. Nice morning present right? You would think but this particular piece only brought total confusion.
It is quite possibly the worst list I have ever seen. If they were talking about good guys who do a lot for their charities, then it shouldn’t be called the hottest guys in MLB. So why is this list so bad? Because not only do they pick guys who are not hot, they miss so many obvious choices.
Think about all the hot baseball players out there. It is freaking hard to narrow that down to a top ten. Fox Sports got three maybe four, if we’re being generous, that would be in the top fifty. Some speculate that the list was created by a guy.
All female fans have their favorites and tastes do differ. I’m sure many a blogger has covered this aspect at one point or another. I know Those Girls even have a podcast in which they pick all-star line-ups based on adorableness. Good stuff, except for that AJ Pierzynski pick, but tastes do differ.
So let’s review the Fox Sports list.
Bronson Arroyo- not a bad guy to put on your top 50 list near the bottom, but top ten? When he’s not in uniform he looks like a member of Nickelback, not that there’s anything wrong with that. However he made a choice in the past that should prohibit him from being on any such list, ever.

Now that’s a bad hair day.
Jose Reyes – Many people would put him on this list. He’s cute. I don’t think he’s top ten material, but I get that some ladies would.
Marco Scutaro - Again he is definitely cute, and great at baseball, but top ten? He has also been disqualified based on photographic evidence of severe creepiness.

Matt Kemp- Another good looking guy that I was surprised would make top ten.
Grady Sizemore – This one they got right. 9 out of 10 women would put him in their top ten.
Robinson Cano- What?! Not even Yankees fans think Cano is hot.
David Wright- Extra credit. He’s a no brainer, and even cuter in person.
Ichiro- Really? I don’t see it. He can fit in Frank Thomas’s pocket. Aki is way hotter than him if they were trying to represent the Asian population.
Barry Zito – Now I know somebody is smoking something, and probably with Barry. He doesn’t do it for this girl.
Jimmy Rollins – Another decent choice, but he has teammates that I think are hotter than he is.
In conclusion the Fox list is terrible. Since I can’t do worse I will bring you my Hottest Men in Baseball list tomorrow. (actually later today since it is after midnight now) Hopefully the Rays will win and this will all just be gravy.
