By the way…looking quickly, it is hard to tell the difference between Smoltz and Lowell. Which means…Lowell was really working on the down and dirty. He’s gonna bring it this year!

Smiling? These are mug shots. You don’t smile in your mug shot. The whole point is look as badass as possible. Obviously, some are more successful (Smoltz – yikes!) than others (Bay – Hi Mom!)

These photos are hideous, with the exception of Tek’s.

“I DRIVE A DODGE STRATUS” SNL reference right? Texy you are awesome!

I would just like to say one of my dreams is to one day meet David Ortiz and give him a huge bear hug.

What is with these? You can’t even see their hats in some of the shots, and they’re all dark and weird. Hate. Them. Can’t believe I will have to see these all year, bleh.

“No, I’m Josh Becket”

haaahaahaaaaa

Great post, Texy.

Buuuuuuut…I have to say that I’m not crazy about the lighting in the photos.

@ecl1958: You think these are bad? The MFY photos make these look outstanding. (Seriously, in their photos--also by Laham--they look like the kids who got beat up for their lunch money.) Bay has one of those faces that works great in profile. He just does not come off as well when he looks straight into the camera. (And Lester really does look more like Beckett than Beckett does here!)

I fell out of my chair at the Jason Bay caption!

Yo ucan totally picture the photographer saying “Okay Jason, look serious.” … “No really, give me an angry face.” … “Errr, I just kicked you in the nuts, and stole your mom’s purse… how mad are you?”

“Ugh, nevermind.” – CLICK! – “Next!”

Youk’s look has grown on me. He’s now less WWE and more WWF. In a fantastic, fantastic way.

Correction — I meant “captions.” It’s too early in the morning for me to think straight! But everyone’s comments are funny as well.

Your comments are helping to alleviate the pain of seeing our guys look this awful.

Best. Description of Papi’s “mugshot.” EVER.

Youk’s stache still scares me.

varitek’s obvious confusion over why everyone is ugly and cross-eyed is understandable.

No one has sufficiently explained to me when or why we traded Youk for Sal Fasano. That’s the only way that moustache-y…thing got on this team.

Texy! Your Beckett/ Lester captions are pa-riceless! And oh my gosh! Youk! Unreal…
