If I give my middle name, it only sounds right with the first name my mother calls me: Matthew Lester Eckstein. To all others, I’m Matt Eckstein. Either way I’m not really gritty and have never worked with Babip, Pecota, or Vorp.

Ricardo Joel Bonilla. I asked Mike to choose between Pedro and Big Papi in Kansas City, so I'm betting I end up with one of the teams that has multiple academies in Dominican Republic . . .

Matthew Lawrence Scully

Something tells me I may end up on the Dodgers. We called him "Uncle Vinnie" and he did have quite a resemblance to my dad.

Sounds like you'd fit right in with Adley Rutschman and Gunnar Henderson and Jordan Westburg and the rest of the Orioles' young studs!

Daniel Aaron Pawson (usually Dan). Feels... golf? Is this just self-loathing that I don't think I deserve to be on a team?

Yes I have a Kaleb Ort shirsey. I'm a Padres fan so no name-game association with Outman please.

Robert Francis Doviak III

I go by the nickname Dov, pronounced like the past tense of diving into a pool (ex. my IG name just says Dov Doviak)

But I'm stronger for having lived through it.
