The Ploid Well, well, well ... if it isn't another damn unicorn that has found it's way to Sacramento via the first round of a BBA draft. This year, GM Shoeless stumbled across a rare Bangladeshi beauty in outfielder
Unem Ploid. But, this unicorn may be the first to receive high marks from fireshoeless.com as his name is literally what this blog has wished to happen to Shoeless since his disaster of a hiring -- unemployed.
In his own right, Ploid isn't a complete disaster of a baseball player, though. His otherworldly contact and avoid K potential could result in perennial .350 batting average seasons. His defensive metrics aren't too cumbersome, so trudging through the short grass of right field could be manageable for him. He also exhibits top end speed and stealing instincts, leaving even the most cynical Pope fans with a curiosity of seeing him batting leadoff in years to come.
Irregardless, fire Shoeless today! Make him... errr... Unem Ploid.

Life is a bit more beautiful when time is measured by the half inning rather than the half hour.
