2010 "Love Notes": Outfielders

At the end of 2008, I wrote an end of the year wrap-up on each player in the organization. Work was very busy last year and the wrap-up was skipped, but I have all the time in the world right now. ;) This year will be slightly different – I decided to write “love notes” instead of a semi-objective wrap up for each player. So here are short little notes to the boys, as if they’d ever read them! :D

Player list pulled from Baseball Reference and is in the order they presented  apparently, no particular order. It was the best way to make sure everyone was covered!

Dear Melky,

Your expanding hair over the season and that super-wonky throw amused me. Good luck with your next club.

Love,
Lauren

Dear Brent,

I wish I had a dollar for every time I pronounced your name for someone. It’s not that difficult! :) I understand; my last name is an odd one too.

Love,
Lauren

Dear MattE,

Thanks for tripping the Morph Suit (that was seriously awesome), hustling on the field, and occasionally making the day of some loud male fans in LF by talking to them during BP. Pretty much everyone thinks you’re amazing.

Love,
Lauren

Dear Nate,

I’m not the one who yelled “Go Mighty Mouse!” at you. Just saying.

Love,
Lauren

Dear Gregor,

I’m glad the trade to KC is giving you a shot to start everyday, but I miss your glowy face.

Love,
Lauren

Dear Rick,

You’re one of the few former Braves I have next to no feelings about, one way or another. I have no idea why.

Love,
Lauren

Dear Jason,

I was in the RF upper deck for your opening day home run, and I honestly thought the stadium was going to collapse from the cheering and I was going to die. :D Thanks for being a player so many fans can passionately cheer for.

Love,
Lauren

Dear He-Man,

I’m pretty sure all my readers were madly in love with you by the end of the season and would die for a SkeHug. Please re-sign! We love your smile and prefer you with hair.

Love,
Lauren
