| We don't have a picture of Glenallen Hill so we found this one of a young girl working in Glenallen Mill in Winchendon, Massachusetts. |
From Glenallen's Wikipedia page comes this gem, "Hill batted and threw right-handed. Hill was also infamous for his defensive escapades, which were once described by then-Mariners pitching coach Bryan Price as "akin to watching a gaffed haddock surface for air." He has also been referred to as The Juggler because he would struggle to hold onto a ball when he caught one."

| It's a gaffed cod, not a haddock, but close enough. |
PengoSports may have campaigned for Sal Fasano, but damn! That's pretty entertaining stuff!
We have also been a fan of Hill's ever since 1990 when he went on the DL for once of the best injury stories out there:

Dude, we aren't a fan of spiders either. This story alone makes you okay in our book.

| The answer is NO! HELL NO! And now she's on the DL too. |
Along with the new manager Hill, Dave Hajek was named the new hitting coach. He was in the same position with Tulsa last year and played with the Sky Sox in 1999, hitting .295/8/58 in 127 games. Welcome Glenallen and Dave! Good luck in 2013!
