The Tyner Totem Resurfaces 

Remember the saga of the
Jason Tyner bobblehead? Blogger Clark Brooks, an avid collector of what the old-schoolers call "nodders," reports that he too is in possession of one of those rare dolls. he left a link to a post discussing the resemblance of various players (and non-players) to their bobbleheads. "I wish I could tell you how I got mine but I can't," he writes of the Tyner totem. "Somebody almost got in trouble for it then and could get in trouble all over again now. So, sorry."



Docked a notch for a lack of candor, but still impressive. Or at least moreso than the real Tyner hitting a combined .153/.223/.176 in limited duty with the Tigers' and Brewers' Triple-A clubs. Oh, mama, can this really be the end?
