Chris Snelling

Snelling is an Aussie born outfielder with an infectious spirit and a keen eye of the strike zone and ligaments made of string. He is a notoriously streaky hitter.

Traded to the Nationals in the Deal Heard 'Round the Blogosphere along with Emiliano Fruto for Jose Vidro. Some people cannot move on and obsessively post about his every plate appearance.

Buried on the Nats bench, a competent GM, Billy Beane picked him up for Ryan Langerhans.

His middle name is Doyle, which is one of his nicknames, as is Yoda. Snelling keeps a poster of the diminutive Jedi master in his locker, has put pictures of him on his glove, and writes the name on his bats.
