Baseball has always been a game that has been filled with colorful nicknames. Many of the current ones, according to Fantasy Baseball Index seem to be given to the DH position with Big Papi, Pronk, and the Big Hurt. I learned of one tonight that has been endowed upon an exciting up and coming young utility player in the Cubs organization. Ryan Theriot has been nicknamed "The Riot" because his last name, "Theriot" is actually spelled "The Riot" when split apart. Isn't that a Riot?
