The Fresno Grizzlies, Triple-A affiliate of the Washington Nationals, have unleashed upon the world this mascot, which resembles Milwaukee Bucks center Brook Lopez or possibly a leering pervert in your neighborhood. The smirk on his face is dismaying. Why’s it like that?


This rude mascot is part of your usual minor league baseball promotion , since Brook’s team is still in the playoffs and he played college ball at Stanford, but you know who would really have a problem with this? His twin brother and Bulls center Robin Lopez. That guy hates mascots. Get him to battle and defeat the most formidable opponent: his own flesh and blood. Well, felt and blood.
