There was a time at which I liked Torii Hunter.

That time is not now.

The world could stand to learn a lesson from RA Dickey. If you're bad at something, add a gimmick. Can't pitch? Throw a knuckleball. Can't sing? Go by one name. Ugly? Wear a hat. It'll make you more interesting, and even in the worst-case scenario where you're still a pile of suck, at least people will have something to talk about other than how bad you are at things. By no means is Dickey a great pitcher or a master of his craft, but given a choice between a plank of wood and a plank of wood with a corner of shiny paint, I'll take the plank of wood with a corner of shiny paint eight days a week. No contest.

LET'S GO MARINERS!!
