Okay, we're going to need a nickname for the big fella, so out of these 3 which one would you vote for?

[b]...or since Goldschmidt is already an awesome name should we just use what Mark Grace says @ the 0:24 second mark of the homer highlight below?[/b]

[b]No.3[/b] [URL="http://mlb.mlb.com/video/play.jsp?content_id=18454223&topic_id=&c_id=mlb&tcid=vpp_copy_18454223&v=3"]August 25th Goldschmidt home run call.[/URL]

How about strike out machine:eek:

Strikeouts will happen in your first month in the big leagues, especially when you draw pitchers like Halladay, Cliff Lee, Cain (twice), Lincecum (twice), Kershaw, and the entire Braves rotation during that month.

When your average homer is 425 feet though you need a nickname.

Number 2 should already be thrown out. Paul Bunyan is pretty much Jim Thome.

perhaps you prefer platoon hitter?:D

# 3 by far

I have a better nickname: The Terrorist-- because of his deadly bombs :)

I just love saying Schmitty-G. I like that one.

I don't like any of the nicknames but I will just vote on #1 so I'm allowed to see the results

Now???????

Goldy is a good hitter and I don't see him being as free-swinging as Mark Reynolds. I think that he is a more disciplined hitter that can draw walks and get on base with hits other than the longball.

I would say Brewer killer but David Freese fits that better.

Gold-Slam! Anyone? No? :o
