PrintFirst post here....
I am nominating that we nickname him "Stretch", after his ridiculously absurd stretching ability at first. Every time he pulls that off I wince in pain.
Anyone else have any ideas... Mr. September... maybe?

Not Stretch
McCovey used to be called “Stretch.”

So Andrew9er, I gather the subliminal message
is that you actually want him to be called “Phil”?

How about Walter Mitty?
Because he’s not nearly as good as he thinks he is.
I think we need several - perhaps hundreds - of comments
debating “DaBa” versus “DaBar”. And then we need to settle on “Maintenance Vehicle”.

"Drac"...
... as a take-off on Daric, and because he does his best hitting after darkness settles over the coliseum.
Certainly not “Pops.”

Now, why on earth would you think that?
Just because it’s something that stuck with us naturally, and not as a result of someone making a contrived appeal for an inorganic nickname-by-committee?
AN 3.0's Search Function is *hawt*!
i agree
it’s got to be nation’sssssss

Dale is too good to pass up. Especially since it can serve as an underlying shot towards the announcers who can’t be bothered to learn the players’ names.

Boog?
Maybe recycling old nicknames isn’t such a bad thing after all.

It can't possibly be Mr September
That’s what they used to call Barry Bonds.
