Is Parker Bugg the coolest baseball name ever?

[ashbury]

Son Bashbury believes today's 4th inning pitcher Parker Bugg has a superb name for a bullpen denizen.  Concur or disconcur.

 

/ disclaimer - Mrs Ash is aghast that I am making fun of the gentleman's name

Twins pitcher?

[IndianaTwin]

I voted “no” on behalf of Boof, but Mr. Bugg seems worthy of consideration.

Yes.  Non-roster invite who cleaned up the final out when Mahle couldn't complete his inning's work.  Never heard of him before today but apparently he pitched an inning earlier this spring.

[TaterTot]

No, Dylan Dingler is.

[Parfigliano]

Former Twin Early Wynn.  I have his autograph from a game in 1969.

[Althebum82]

Wynn did pitch for the Senators before they became the Twins from 1939-48 (missing two seasons during that stretch).  

Hall of Famer.  

No doubt a treasured autograph to have!

And yes, unlike "Boof", Early Wynn was in fact his actual name given at birth.

I don't think this player's name will ever be outdone.

This player also merits mention.

Not with the likes of Boof Bonser, Coco Crisp and Dick Pole out there!

It is a pretty cool name though!

I'm partial to Locke St. John.

Overvalued former Twins prospect Shooter Hunt should be on the short list, too.  (I had forgotten him until the latest Randballs Stu article and discussion)

Twins pitching coach when I got autograph.

[Richie the Rally Goat]

I voted yes because I have a bad memory and then read the comments and regretted my vote

[Rosterman]

I still like Shooter Hunt and Homer Bailey better.

[strumdatjag]

I offer Grant Balfour as my favorite baseball name.  
Dick Pole is redundant.

That reminds me of Shooty Babbitt — let’s not forget him.

Milton Bradley had game.
