Utah might be getting a major league baseball team and I couldn’t help but wonder about names. Seems like so many are overused.

Me personally, I like Rabbid Jackalopes (unless they were based in Ogden in which case tweaker seems appropriate), but I’m sure they wouldn’t pick that. What about the rest of Lemmy? What name would get you to cheer?

Edit: revisiting this as I actually came up with a better name: The Gila Monsters

They live in southern Utah, provide a unique name, and would make a great mascot. They also haven’t been politicized yet

    Utah’s MLB team should keep the “ends with Z” theme. They probably couldn’t steal “The Buzz” from the minor league team, so maybe “The Fuzz” or “The Whizz”.

      I like those options, at least better than some of the options I’ve read.
