Who are the five hitters you absolutely dread facing when they come up to bat against your team? These guys may not be the best hitters in baseball, but they scare you more than anyone else. Here's my five.
1. Albert Pujols - He kills everyone, but he seems to homer every other at-bat against the Braves.
2. Barry Bonds - I'm not burying him yet. He's still Bonds.
3. David Ortiz - In the big spots, this is the last guy I want to see up there.
4. Adam Dunn - Especially when we're facing him in Great American Ball Park. You're just waiting for him to launch one 500 feet.
5. Jimmy Rollins - This guy just flat-out owns the Braves. Never an easy out.
Others: Ryan Howard, Carlos Lee, Carlos Delgado, Miguel Tejada
