Belt-Giraffe

With Torres back on the team, maybe he should become "Twitchy"...

Not a huge fan of our nicknames for Pence. He needs to do something to change that.

Torres' nickname is Towers. Pence nicknames are quite proper.

Edit: Can we officially change Posey's from MVPosey to MVPaid?

Forgot about Towers. I knew we already had one for him!

Need a nick for Quiroz.

All the ones I can think of are homophobic.

Unfortunately, "quiroz" doesn't really mean anything in Spanish, like Joe Table, or Andy Towers, or Peter Happy.

Quiroz is one of my heroes. A nice rhyme, but it doesn't make for a nickname.

Might have to go with "Memo" for now.

 

[Stokes1931]

How about his initials, "GQ"?

This is where I was going. Sometimes the simplest is the best. Especially when the simple is pretty cool.

Well, he is not exactly what GQ would be looking for, I don't think. But he is better looking than "Mr. Handsome" from back in the day.

Like it.

 

[calsnowskier]

I am guessing we have pretty much settled on BB9 for Belt.

Not a huge fan of it, but nothing else has worked...

I like it. However, we need one for Abreu.

"Not Bobby?"

How about Corona?

A Brew.

 

[GiantsPackersChamps2011]

I'm just going to call him Ebreu

 

[Brahmsian]

Any of you aware that your pitcher Vogelsong's last name is German for "songbird?"

My older brother studied German in high school, so being around him one learned some German
like it or not.

 

[calsnowskier]

Un-stickied. Like the language thread, kinda dated...

 

[MarcoPolo]

If it's possible to make a FOLDER and stickie it to the top (Say, one called READ IN HERE FIRST), this would be a good thread to place in it.

I could see that one working its way into the rotation. One nickname per person is boring, anyway.
