What’s in a Name?

by James Finn Garner

Based on the blog post, “Here are the 100 Best Minor League Player Names Heading into the 2018 Season”, on Cut4.

Don’t get cheeky with Dalton Geekie
Or throw a lot of derp on Franklin Van Gurp
We’ll soon know the warth of Shea Spitzbarth
Ain’t that the truth, oh, Maverik Buffo
Yezz, we will see about Yeffersson Yannuzzi
But I hope things sizzle for Austin Bizzle
“Can’t stop, won’t stop”–the motto of Zach Pop
Best make room for Makesiondon Kelkboom

Sure, poke fun at the name of Blake Pflughaupt,
But he’s playing ball, sucker, and you’re naupt.
