The All-Star Game is next week, and I have a prank idea.
Liam Hendriks and Ryan Pressly should switch jerseys.
Be each other. For the day. You don’t look that much alike, but few people know what either of you look like, you’re vaguely the same type of guy (right-handed reliever around six feet tall and somewhere between 205 and 235 pounds), and no one would stop you even if they did know. Maybe a commentator would be confused, but would they really notice?
I say you go for it.
Backup plan is Kevin Gausman switching with someone, but somehow, the most generic-looking man in baseball has no clear foil with whom to switch. Maybe when the injury fill-ins have all been announced.
