In his first season as a Detroit Tiger, Carlos Guillen had a breakout season of sorts where he went to his first All Star Game with 20 Home Runs and a .318 Batting Average.  Guillen was not a one season wonder as he would be named an All Star twice more.  He would overall bat a solid .297 over his tenure with Detroit.
I wonder if it is a prerequisite to be popular if you are named Rocky?

That was certainly the case for Rocky Colavito as a Cleveland Indian, but it wasn’t that he didn’t have fans when he was traded to the Tigers.
With the flowing blonde hair and tall frame, Noah Syndergaard, has the nickname of "Thor".  Many days, he pitched just like it.
