Ummmm…one of these things is not like the other. Brian McCann amidst all these turds? WTF?

In McCann’s case, I think we have to assume it means the good connotation of “bad.” At least McCann’s deserving of a nickname, some of these guys really aren’t.

I nominated McCann because of his LASIK-induced vision problems and subsequent eyewear fiasco. As in, “Damn, Jesus, that was a bad miracle you performed on Brian McCann. You’re lucky his wOBA didn’t suffer in the long-run.”

McCann’s got a nickname: “Heap”.

None of the Braves will confirm exactly where the name came from (some announcers pretend it’s because of his body composition, but this is known to be false), but we have some rumors. Legend has it that it involves a Braves road game, a hotel, and feces.
