Nicknames (reprise)

I usually just call Cabrera "s***head"

 

Examples:

"Oh look, s***head's up. Anyone in the mood for a first pitch popout?"

or

"Oh look, s***head just olay'ed another grounder. That's gonna cost us 3 runs."

 

I tend to call Bobby "fatty" but that's definitely a term of endearment.

 

I've been calling Thome "Thumb" for about as long as I can remember.

 

Podsednik definitely had the best nicknames, such as "Peter Pan", "Twinkle-Toes" and "Prancer".

I like calling Thome Thome ,as in rhymes with home, because I think it matches his appearance and swing.

My mom came up with dreamboat for Neal Cotts as well. It stuck in my household.

Bobby Jenks is always "The Beer Drinker" round these parts

-Herbert Perry was the Milkman, Well Paul Konerko should be the Piano Man...cuz he runs like one is on his back.

-Uribe can be "The Loaded Gun" for his cannon arm and for actually shooting someone (allegedly)

-Crede is "Na na nanana BACKMAN"

-The Kark I used to refer to as "Kracklevice"

It's terrible but, the guys in my office call Ramirez the "Ethiopian Missile"

 

In '05 my wife came up with "Andale Andale Uribe Uribe" in homage to Speedy Gonzalez.

 

Juandele' Uribe! I like that.
