    I'm opposed to including nicknames.

    That disqualifies Catfish Hunter but allows for Craig Swan and Jake Lamb.

    And we need a ruling on Jim Kaat...

    I think Kaat is clearly acceptable.

    I would like to nominate Dansby Swanson as the greatest name in the history of names. It's a crime that this guy is not a peer of the realm. Dansby Swanson, 15th Earl of whatever. It has such a ring to it. I can't believe this guy isn't wearing a monocle everywhere he goes. He and Benedict Cumberbatch should get together and enter a "Most British name ever" contest.

    - From the 2004 ALCS Game 4 Gamethread. A reminder that no game is over until the final out is recorded, and things will always get better. Misspellings unchanged as a reminder that Yankees fans are just terrible.

    OK, so with this new jersey nickname thing, how about some humorous alternate nicknames for Red Sox players past and present? They have to be fairly short ones.

    I'll start with a suggestion for David Price: YUCK YOU
