Father to Son,

"Josh you gotta let your soul glo and your moustache grow!"




Jesse Barfield was better known for his canon of an arm in outfield, but in several seasons he put up some serious power numbers.
In 1986 ol' Jesse hit 40 dongeroos and drove in 108 riblets.



'stache soaking flavor!



Pedro, dentureless!





Classic Dude of the Week !

Keith Hernandez


What does Keith spy in the dug out?

A mound of cocaine?

Kevin Mitchell playing cards?

"What the? That's a chick in dugout. With the long hair, thats a chick."

Certainly the best broadcast moment since Joe Namath.
"I wanna kiss you"

Nick"the stick" Johnson (entendre?)

This former Bronx Bomber showed up this year with a fine follicular feature on his lip.

The Stickman is off to a fine start leading the Nationals in most hitting categories.

Johnson so far is batting .372 with 5 dongers, 11 RBI's, 20 Runs, and 2 stolen bags. Whew!

The Yanks should have kept him around. You never know when the Giambino will have another pituitary problem.








Sal's Pals

Sal Fasano was my favorite Columbus Clipper a few years back. A pretty gritty catcher who came to plate to the rocking "Black Betty" by Ram Jam.

I had since forgotten about him until one of my sources in Philly told me he was in the show playing for the Phillies. Big Sal has had a bit of makeover in the form of a trucker 'stache and mullet since leaving Cowtown. Sal now has a rabid Philly Fan(Sal's Pals) following although he only catches for Jon Leiber.



"The Cup Runneth Over"

I sat out one of my young fantasy baseball studs because of a reported nagging groin pain. It turns out Astros Pitcher Wandy Rodriguez's groin pain was due to Wandy's "junk" not quite all fitting in his cup. Ouch! Maybe they should call Wandy "The Big Unit".

So on Tuesdays start Wandy went sans cup.




"Steady" Eddie Murray

This smooth operatin' switch hitter was known as much for his cat-like precision from both sides of the plate as he was for his well-groomed afro-puff that went ka-pow! out of his hat. He aslo had a mastery of the pointy sideburns straight to moustache look, that is no easy feat.

Here are some of Eddie's non-follicular achievements
