Bourn Nickname

All right, let's come up with a nickname for Bourn.  My name for him is "Swiper", Coop calls him "The Igniter". 

Give me some more names and we'll put it to a vote.

Bourn currently has 6 steals on the season and is 6 for 6 and hasnt reall been close to getting out.  He stole a base tonight that he was 3/4 the way there before the catcher even thought of throwing.

AirBourn

Or Waterboy (that whole 25% thing, yo).

75% of the Earth's surface is covered by water. . . the other 25% by Michael Bourn

Bourn

let's call him "Sniper" (especially if he racks up some OF assists)

or, if you like the whole nickname-from-the-name thing, we could call him M-Bo

Dude...

I’d vote… but the options suck.

Not that I have anything brilliant to add to the conversation.

Give it time. No need to rush into a crappy nickname. Still a very young season.
