Oakland Athletics trade for the hat-tilter: Fernando Rodney

Fernando Rodney won’t get the chance to shoot his arrow after completing a save for the Oakland Athletics, but you kind of want to see it, don’t you?

I can picture it now. Rodney, on the mound in the green and gold, hat tilted to the left as he completes the save. He turns towards the center field wall, raising his bow with his left arm.

Fernando pulls his right elbow tightly behind him, leaning his body back towards home plate. Then the release. The arrow cuts like a knife through the air, peppering a seat up on top of Mount Davis.
