there aren't many, unless you include goatees, right? Jeff Kent? Jim Leyland?

Until Dwight Evans kicks it, this thread is moot.
― David R., Thursday, 10 April 2008 19:19 (seventeen years ago)
OK among CURRENT MAJOR LEAGUERS. I actually couldn't think of a single one!
For the record, I've always thought Jeff Kent's stache was TERRIBLE.
― Tracer Hand, Thursday, 10 April 2008 19:28 (seventeen years ago)
Leyland's is pretty good. It's nice and thick and settled in.
And yeah, popshotter, Evans was the inspiration for this. Seeing him catch Bill Buckner's first pitch the other day made me realize how many great moustaches that 1986 Red Sox team had. Boggs, Steve Crawford, Rice.. Greenwell.. Mike Easler.. Oil Can..
― Tracer Hand, Thursday, 10 April 2008 19:31 (seventeen years ago)
ah, the oil can...

For the record, I've always thought Jeff Kent's stache was TERRIBLE. I agree; I just don't know who else even has one.

my favorite headline ever in the globe sports page was for the story about how oil can got sued by a video store down in florida for never returning a bunch of pornos he rented: CAN'S FILM FESTIVAL

A few years ago, Nick Johnson had a THE NEXT LIARS / YYYs facial hair thing going. Or I might be dreaming.
Off-topicish, but has anyone seen Nick Swisher's hideous dyed goat-beard? It covers 75% of his chin, IS BLONDE, and was trimmed and shaped by a trained seal missing one flipper. Looks like something Todd Jones would be jealous of.

Fernando ViƱa had a very nice 'stache and he is still on Baseball Tonight.
Even his name wears a moustache.

Bill Buckner!?
― The Cursed Return of the Dastardly Thermo Thinwall, Thursday, 10 April 2008 19:49 (seventeen years ago)
It is quite impressive! I'd like to see him try the Hulk Hogan NWO-era thin black beard + blonde goatee combo at some point.
― polyphonic, Thursday, 10 April 2008 19:51 (seventeen years ago)
I hate you, poly, because that is probably 2 or 3 beards away from happening.
― David R., Thursday, 10 April 2008 19:53 (seventeen years ago)
wait, so why NOT todd jones?

the fact that there are 20x as many soul patches as moustaches in baseball right now is troubling

Dude, where's your 'stache? Byrnes sets unlikely trend that Marlins bullpen embraces (Eric) Byrnes grew a mustache during a 14-game hitting streak in April, and he declared 2008 as the "The Year of the Mustache."
* * *
Marlins reliever Justin Miller, Byrnes' friend and former teammate at Triple-A Sacramento, though, saw the story, and with the Florida bullpen performing beyond expectations, it picked up the torch and ran with it.
So Miller sent Byrnes a text message that read in part: "2008, The Year of the Mustache, the Marlins' bullpen is all in."
Unfortunately, the Marlins' bullpen gave up nine runs over four innings on Wednesday, and when the relievers returned to their lockers after the game, they found razors courtesy of manager Fredi Gonzalez.
