Is Kurt cute? I had no idea.

As an NRAF without the mlb.tv package I don’t have much else to go on.
Someone should make a special AN picture gallery with one nice portrait for each player. Then we can look at that instead.
The gauntlet was thrown. down.
BEHOLD! "Nice portraits" for each player.
Andrew Brown-
It was difficult to find photos of Andrew.
Santiago Casilla-
It was also hard to find photos of Santiago/Jairo.
Joey Devine-
Lenny DiNardo-
Alan Embree-
This really isn’t a bad MLB.com photo.
Keith Foulke-
Keith makes it difficult for me to like him... because of the whole Red Sox mess.
Huston Street-
Brad Ziegler-
He’s a big deal around here. Also, 0.00 is pretty darn hawt.
Joe Blanton-
Justin Duchscherer-
Dana Eveland-
Chad Gaudin-
Rich Harden-
Greg Smith-
Rob Bowen-
Kurt Suzuki-
Daric Barton-
I liked the mohawk. And the spilts rock.
Eric Chavez-
Bobby Crosby-
Mark Ellis-
Jack Hannahan-
Donnie Murphy-
Mike Sweeney-
Emil Brown-
Jack Cust-
Rajai Davis-
Chris Denorfia-
Carlos Gonzalez-
Ryan Sweeney-
Frank Thomas-
Travis Buck-
Please let me know if any photos are too large.
New hotttie, Wes Bankston! -

No Frank Thomas pictures are complete without the hunk-o-rebar in the on deck circle.
Other than that, good stuff.
The Thomas pics
In them he looks mad at something, even though both pic look like something good has happened. I would really hate to see him if he got mad. You would not like him if he got mad.
I'm in class right now
But if we can keep this thread active until after 12:40, I’ll be happy to contribute.
Also, I. Hate. Anatomy.
I'm reprising my "Uncle Buck" pic from ST. That's Mama/sister in the background.

Harden's smirk has more movement than his fastball. On both sides of the plate.
Is it cuz he’s Canadian?
Also, what’s with Street’s come-n-get-it pic? It’s a short step to Burt Reynolds. (may be NSFW)

too large? oh no. no no.
J, you’re my hero. Seriously.
And that first picture of Chavvy is my MOST favorite picture of him ever. It’s almost too good-looking.

He can wear whatever he wants.
Preferably just the sunglasses.

This is the perfect pseudo-Friday thread.

Good job!
Although some guys look better in motion than in photos. And did you have to post a pic of Cupcakes that includes a bad word (“Loaiza”)?
Now, your next challenge: Find a photo of Huston where he looks bad. I don’t think it can be done.
There's no textbook for how to treat a geriatric tapir.
No.
He looks like devil’s spawn here.

LOL. To each her own, I guess.

Also...
All the players who have access to babies (either their own or someone else’s) need to be pictured with babies.
And I love Chad’s dog.

Damn!
Briggs has a head like a beachball.

I want the A's to release a calendar
of A’s players with kittens.
A’s players + kittens = World Series. I swear.
"This must be heaven," he says.
"No. It's Oakland."
They DFA'd the calendar yesterday.
If nobody wants to give up anything for it, they’ll have no choice but to release it outright.

WHERE IS ZEBULON
I generally bemoan the profusion of Mr Sabermetric Sporks in the Scrabble ranks who don't know the meaning or usage of 50% of the words they use. -monkeyball
I don't know where Zebulon is...
but I know where the A’s are.

... that adenine, thymine, guanine and cytosine could possibly be combined to so perfect an effect?
Especially the thighmine.

Okay, chess pic Q:
Is Pepto our closer’s pre-game, or chess game, beverage of choice—or is it standing-in for his other rook?

I *think* it's being used as a stand-in...

I believe this was during the period
in which someone (Mike Sweeney?) was hiding pieces around the clubhouse…

Awesome
Thanks Jennifer.
I’m not a chick, but I really did want to see what all the guys look like.
And I’ll concede you the point on cuteness. I’m not going to call any of the guys cute, but I will grant you that there is no one on this team who is un-cute.

Being an A makes them cuter.

I'm cool with seeing newer players with their old team's unis on this thread
except for Rajai wearing “G” who must not be named!
Green Hulk Fists
Is that why their jerseys show only the number?
Because they must not be named?

late to the party,
but THANK YOU for posting all these pics. lovely. and it was educational, since i had no idea what joey devine looked like. also, where did that pic of kurt in the tux come from? adorable.
I don't remember where I got it...
I used google or yahoo for most all of these. It’s from his wedding.
This diary made me feel like a stalker.

Hey you added Wes!

yaaaaay
What an amazing post! best looking team in the game, no doubt! An adorable-off would be a tough call with Sweeney and Harden. Both are perfect looking men :) Overall…a talented and great looking team!
I must say…my heart belongs to Greg Smith though. Not that you could tell! I wish there were more pictures of him out there..I appreciated this post. :)
I am equally or more in love with Greg Smith! lol I got an autographed picture of him a month ago!!
Gorgeous!!!!!!!!!!! Jack Hannahan too! Hannahan is single handedly the best looking dude on the team. Harden, Sweeney, Barton, Buck, Smith, Crosby, STreet, I could go on and on, def. the best looking team every year!! They def. win in that department!! lol
