“Mr. Softee” for Cobb needs to become a thing.

hint: his last name sounds like a mouthwash.

Oh, and having read the thread now, I totally endorse and applaud Tippecanoe and Yoga.

And he recently hit a towering homer into the upper deck at Target Field

Bump because Player's Weekend approaches on 8/23 - 25 (versus the playoffs-hopeful Rays).  Here are the monochromatic colors we can expect.  What say you?  Too bad that "Swaggy T" won't be eligible for the banter out in Seattle!  Will Boom Boom return?  Crush?

Did I make a joke about Chris "Albatross" Davis last year?

[canonfaz]

I prefer

Chris "Paycheck" Davis 

or Chris "Deferred Money" Davis

It's going to be Chris "Deferred Money" Davis at the old timers games, since they will still be paying him.

Wonder if Stewart is going to be stuck with Stewart or if they can get a rush job done?

I'm interested in the story behind Swan.

Are swans particularly susceptible to injury?
