Poll: Nick Swisher: Koopa Troopa, or Toothless Codger?
In a single plate appearance versus Reds’ right-hander Homer Bailey last night (a three-pitch strike-out), Indians OF/1B/DH Nick Swisher displayed behavior that set off red alerts in the NotGraphs Investigative Reporting Investigation Team’s Office for Investigating Player Alter-Egos. The NIRIT (pronounced nee-reet) OIPAE (pronounced oy-pay) has gathered the following footage and have noted possible alter-egos for Mr. Swisher based on that footage.
EXHIBIT A:
Footage Suggesting a “Koopa Troopa” Alter-Ego for Mr. Swisher
EXHIBIT B:
Footage Suggesting a “Toothless Codger” Alter-Ego for Mr. Swisher
Now the OIPAE needs your help, dear NotGraphs gumshoes. Which alter-ego do you think is more like for Mr. Swisher based on the given visual evidence?

I voted Codger. Both because I think it’s the best option and also because Glen Davis has already laid claim to Koopa Troopa: http://assets.sbnation.com/assets/510523/nbabigbaby.gif
