The Resume

(April 14, 1976- )
Right Handed Relief Pitcher
Played for Chicago Cubs (1999-2004), Detroit Tigers (2005, 2008), Atlanta Braves (2005, 2010), New York Yankees (2006-2008), Kansas City Royals (2009-2010) and Tampa Bay Rays

Why he might be annoying:

During a game with the Cincinnati Reds, he pitched a ball inside to the batter (opposing pitcher, Paul Wilson) who was attempting to bunt (June 19, 2003). After shouting back and forth, Wilson tossed his bat and Farnsworth tossed his glove and they went for each other. He tackled Wilson and punched him in the jaw causing both to be ejected.
He eventually received a three day suspension for the fight.
It should also be noted that in the previous inning, both a Cub and Red were hit by a pitch.
In each of his first four seasons, he had a losing record.
He owns a losing career record.
His stint as a starting pitcher lasted just one year before being placed in the bull pen.
His middle name is Lynn.

Why he might not be annoying:

His 2003 season marked signs of improvement.
He attended Junior College.
He is considered one of the Cubs' future stars.
Chicks dig him.
