The halfway point of the season has arrived and there are of course many questions to be answered before the SABL playoffs begin, and a new champion is crowned(or maybe a back to back winner). 

In the dog days of summer one's mind sometimes wanders in the middle of blowouts or even during an at bat.  Last weekend while coaching third I had a light hearted conversation with the third baseman of the opposing team.  I went something like this.

Me - "Man your left fielder Darrell is real intimidating.  He has a body of gold and just scares the crap out of the opposing fans and pitchers ever time he comes up.  I think he might be in the same category as John Wilson who I hear from opposing fans just scare the hell out of them"

Third Baseman - "I am not real comfortable with this conversation so close to Pride dude"

Me - "I am comfortable with my hetrosexuality but this is a question that has to be answered"

And so it started

So for the first annual GQ SABL Poll here is the question:

"Which SABL player looks the best in a uniform"?  He does not have to be a good player.  He just has to look like his uniform has been sitting in plastic in between games, and simply looks like a major league player.  Eye black is a plus, and being on the juice would also help. 

I will help out by giving you 10 candidates from the league.  You can also write in a player if you prefer.

1.  John Wilson - Mets

2.  Darrell Eailey - Red Sox

3.  Andrew Ryder - Dragons

4.  Adam Morton - Jays

5.  Rob Hehir - Astros

6.  Brennan Corey - Royals

7. Jason Forbes - Psychos

8. Paul Harrison - Reds

9.  Matt Steele - White Sox

10. Anthony Warren - Goats

If you are too homophobic to respond then ask your wife or girlfriend who they think should win.  Send all votes to info@sabl.ca.  I will tabulate and announce the winner by the long weekend in August
