1. Butterfly Effect by Travis Scott

Who else could top this list?! The Club Astros DJ, Springer, is the only one that could do it. The Houston Astros centerfielder has everything you need as a clubhouse leader. He has the baseball talent. He has the passion and energy. Most importantly (to this list at least), he has the swag.

Springer encompasses everything baseball is becoming. No longer is it just a slow, “boring” sport. It is young, fun, and exciting. Baseball is behind the curve in letting players have fun and show personality. Some are opposing this trend, but it’s surging regardless.

‘Butterfly Effect’ tops this list for a variety of reasons. Being quite honest, one of the reasons is Travis Scott’s status as an H-Town hip-hop artist. Scott grew up in Houston and even was a Rockets ball boy growing up. He loves the Houston Astros, take a look at this picture.

In itself, ‘Butterfly Effect’ is a phenomenal piece of music. It is not a huge banger by any means. Instead, it has a chill, relaxing vibe. However, Scott uses the vibe and still gets people off of their feet. When the song booms through the system you know your team leader and leadoff hitter is coming to the plate.

When Springer is at the plate, even a small drop of his energy can have the butterfly effect. In chaos theory posits that a butterfly’s wings could have a great effect as to cause a hurricane. That is exactly what Springer does for this Houston Astros team. He is the catalyst that this team lives by. That is why he has the number one song on this list. That is why he has the most swag of anyone on this team.
