[USML Announce] The Name Game -- Worst Name Edition

[Richard Robbins]

While perusing the list of prospects that might be available in this year's
draft and noticing that just about all of the good players are likely to be
rostered, I started looking for good names.

This year, one name jumped out at me as being so bad, it might be good.

Gentleman, I present:  Rougned Odor, 2B bean for the Rangers (and number
ten on the Baseball America list for the Rangers).  He is the nephew of
Indians Double-A hitting coach, Rouglas Odor.  (wow)

According to BA, scouts were initially scared by his smallish stature and
speed.  I'll be the name didn't help either.

I can't read his scouting report without giggling.  "Odor doesn't have
elite level tools, but . . . "

Top that one boys. . .
