How about Tony "Punching Bag" Mann

the nicknames always are fun!

Ben Lame (always looks like B.Lame when you see it everywhere)

Or lets take two extremes, Delbert (like Dilbert) Jock

andjbock · 09-24-2003, 08:56 AM

that catcher named "mary" luckily it was his last name

dougaiton · 09-24-2003, 09:27 AM

I should have guessed this would happen, but with my british name files I got 'Russell Russell', 'Andrew Andrew', and of course 'Scott Scott'. Back to the drawing board...

cameronbelldina · 09-24-2003, 09:30 AM

amitchell · 09-24-2003, 09:33 AM

Richard Hurts was pretty funny. I also liked Tom Kaat. Those were the only two I've seen that I can think of off the top of my head.

Jamey · 09-24-2003, 04:17 PM

I have Mary Twins, Jimmy Mary and Aubray Mary, both very good starting pitchers

ifspuds · 09-24-2003, 04:44 PM

A league I recently started has a starting pitcher named Mary Daggett and an outfielder named Ulysses McNutt, which has to be one of the great names of all time.

cacrowl · 09-24-2003, 11:16 PM

I got the presidential name, Clinton Bush.

That is great!

andjbock · 09-25-2003, 09:51 AM

i have since erased "mary" from the name files

ctorg · 09-25-2003, 10:02 AM

I erased "Eloy" from my name files after three guys showed up with it and were playing at the same time. I've never heard of anyone named Eloy.

Dude, you're missing out.

TheDROCK · 09-26-2003, 03:00 AM

My best name so far:

Kelly Krapp

As a Buddy Holly fan, I have to opt for Ray Vaughn (from Buddy's song "Rave On").

BadVlad · 09-26-2003, 12:30 PM

My hero is John "The Saint" Goodrow, who I took as the second pick overall in the 2010 draft.

He made a quick jump to the majors to fill a weak 3b spot and hit .230 with 14 HR's in his rookie campaign.

In 2012 he had a sophomore season of .307, 36 HR's and 114 RBI.

Did you nickname him "Plays like"

The new UBA produced a 1901 player called Paul "Psycho" Martin - a strange nickname for the turn of the century
