The Big Puma

As an Astros fan, I have been keeping tabs on Lance Berkman's season. In case you haven't been paying attention, Berkman is having a monster season. Thus far, he has to be the leading candidate for NL MVP. He is in the NL's top 3 in nearly every statistical offensive category: home runs (1, tied), RBI (1), runs (1), slugging percentage (1), OPS (1), batting average (2), hits (2), doubles (2, tied), and OBP (3). And he's also tied for 7th in stolen bases, tied for 10th in walks, and tied for 13th in triples. I'm looking for Berkman to go ahead and grab a sextuple crown (HRs, RBI, BA, runs, hits, slugging pct.).

Lance Berkman also gave himself a nickname, which puts him squarely in the douche camp.

If your previous nickname was "Fat Elvis," you would give yourself a new nickname too.
