Added.

I didn't consider him a big [expletive] talker. He just was competitive. But since CC is there, I'll add Bob.

Of those choices, Chris Carpenter. But the real winner is Bob Gibson and it's not really close

I think Templeton fits the definition more. It's not just about skill.

Pham up there too with the SI article.

Brebbia deserves a mention.

I hear you but when your ass is so red it intimidates the unintimidated, that's something special. Carpenter was first class but he mostly pissed other teams off. Gibby scared them - a much harder accomplishment.

That one Tough Dominican was always one of my favorites as a kid too.

Almost added Andujar. He was pretty mouthy on those 80s teams.
