Starting Pitcher	Tanyan Sturtze	A bizarre first name, coupled with an unlikely last name . . . . . . that rhymes with the name of his battery mate!

Catcher	Kettle Wirts	Kettle just seems like a good name for a catcher And it seems to fit-- sort of-- with his last name too

Shortstop	George Magoon	When his manager was mad at him, did he ever. . . . . .call him "a big Magoon?"
