Slowest feet in the game today

[Bill Menard]

People always talk about those with speed, who tear up the base paths stealing bases. But what about the other guys - the slow pokes who can't get a double out of a deeply hit ball to right.

Barring pitchers, who do you think is the slowest runner in baseball (current players only)?

Paul Konerko
One of my favorites, but might be the slowest.

If he is still playing it is Bengie Molina.

I was actually thinking Jim Thome when I posted up. I think Molina is out of the game.

Casey Kotchman.

Not even Jack Cust?

Adrian Gonzalez is sloooow. He's quick at first but he's never in a hurry on the bases.

Adrian Gonzalez is sloooow.

This.

He can hardly score from second on a single.

Dunn

+1
He fits the definition by all standards.

 

[ljw29]

I gotta say Gonzalez too as he makes Ortiz look fast

 

[TGutta]

Has to be Jim Thome

 

[bradical]

Big Papi

 

[nbailey]

Brett Wallace may be the slowest "younger player" in baseball - he doesn't clog base paths, he constipates them.

 

[vwnut13]

Big Papi

As ljw29 said, Gonzalez makes Ortiz look fast.

Gonzalez is funny... He was actually the inspiration behind the question... I have a baseball game app on my iPad and I play as the redsox. Gonzalez is constantly thrown out at second when he hits the ball to the wall in right. I get aggrevated with the game because it seems so unrealistic, but maybe that's about right! LOL

Travis Hafner. He'd finish 3rd in a race with a pregnant woman...
