Barry
Billy Butler
Josh Hamilton

Sammy and Prince use a modified "tap", which isn't really a tap, but very similar in concept.

his name is chipper.... I thought, thats how it is on the roster anyway I would also refuse to call a mid 30 yr old guy CoCo Crisp..... stupidest name in baseball.

His name is Larry Wayne Jones. Chipper has been his nickname for so long, most do believe that his name actually is Chipper. Plus, putting Larry instead of Chipper on the roster would confuse 95% of the fans.

And Coco is only 28, so it's not too bad. But I still call him Covelli, or by his new nickname "Yusuk Kanthit"

And add Adrian Gonzalez to list of toe-tappers

I guess that's ok if your a Mets fan. Otherwise, here in the South he'll always be Chipper to us.
