Joey Creighton
Wiffleball 2K
The only 3-time champion ('99, '00, '02), Joey was the only man who could wrestle the MVP away from Carmichael (twice!), and even snagged a Cy Young in 2000. Athletic beyond nearly everyone's imagination, Joey never didn't win the Defensive Player of the Year award, and until 2003, seemed incapable of losing a homerun derby. A true lefty, Joey's become a master of hitting to all parts of the field. He's a chore to strike out, and with two strikes, seems to find the ability to hit any pitch. You can run the ball in on him with success, but he's got a great eye, so you'd better not miss. His pitching is solid, but seems to be falling fast. Only three seasons ago he broke new ground with a record-breaking 0.73 ERA. The next season though, he climbed to 2.82 and then hit 3.28 last season. He's got good enough speed, but not overpowering, and has good accuracy.
