The Z-Man With New Photos

Everyone's favorite's rock-n-roll man, Michael Zagaris (Z-Man), has posted a new blog entry on his personal blog, http://asthruz.mlblogs.com/. It shows some sweet shots of Rickey clowning around having a good time (just like he was back in his playing days), Jemile Weeks coming to Oakland, and Z's new favorite, Carlos getting ready.

Additionally there's some cool shots of the A's magazine shoots with Ryan Sweeney and The Duke.

Check it out!

Mark Ellis: sent down from Heaven to rob Evil of hits and hand out rainbows

Whoa whoa whoa.

Swooney has tattoos? And he’s done some modeling?? (That explains a lot.) Learn something new every day.

He's a former Chippendale.

If this whole baseball thing doesn't work out,

at least we know he has another career path ready and waiting.

Can I have $10?

LMAO

He’s a baby!

There's no textbook for how to treat a geriatric tapir.

I beg your pardon!

I’m perfectly capable of leering at adults that are too young for me. Just not ones that remind me of my own kid! LOL

So Poppy Jr looks like Ryan?

I know Niece doesn’t think so.

I don't really think so, either.

But there’s something about Ryan that reminds me of Poppy Jr., and I can’t place what it is. It’s not just height & blondness… it’s something about his facial expressions, but not features.

Oh, in that case...

When I look at myself in the mirror, I’m reminded of Eva Mendes.

Hmm...

How old’s your son? If he’s over 18, I’m 18, you know, and I would love to have a Sweeney look-a-like… I mean, you as a mother-in-law ;]

Stuck on Buck :)

LOL

He’ll be 19 next month. If you can get him to go to school full-time, you’re hired!... I mean, you have my blessing. ;)

But a tribal band?

Upon closer examination,

he’s got quite a few themes going on there. Not sure if I like the artwork all together, but it still looks damn good on that arm of his.

I bet he had the tribal band before and got the rest later...

when he discovered tribal tattoos stopped being cool long ago.

Excellent way to distract myself from work. Me like Swooney with tattoos…

by justarebelheart on Aug 5, 2008 1:09 PM PDT reply actions   0 recs

Me too!

But how about some color photos too!

32 and counting...

Kind of related,

in a weird sort of way, to the modeling discussion: I was just reading the latest A’s magazine, and one of the articles is a day-in-the-life sort of thing for Suzuki (including a picture of him waking up over-sleeping Travis…).

Anyway, maybe Kurt wants to be a model too: “While stretching in the condo, he’s known to wear nothing but underwear and running shoes - ‘clothes constrict me,’ he says - something that amuses Buck to no end.” If his clothes constrict him, I wonder how much he likes wearing all that catching gear…

by whiteshoes40 on Aug 5, 2008 2:50 PM PDT reply actions   0 recs

I read that article, too.

It also said something about Kurt’s wife visiting occasionally to tidy up the condo and do their laundry. You, uh… GO?, girl.

when I read "z-man with new photos"

for a moment I wondered if Barry Zito published a new set of locker room pics…

by OaklandSi on Aug 5, 2008 3:08 PM PDT reply actions   0 recs

I, too, thought of Barry Zito.

But Barry Zito in a different way…

my oh my..

meeeeeooooooow Ryan Sweeney. That big tattoo just made him even hotter..if possible. I am torn between my love for Smith and lust for Sweeney ;)

by ilovegregsmith on Aug 5, 2008 4:46 PM PDT reply actions   0 recs

I love one of the older pictures

Where it says Embree and Thomas are studying game film when you can clearly see spider solitare on the computer Embree is at. That would explain a lot this season.
