I decided to go with the Ian Kennedy hat first.(shown below) ONE ENTRY PER ACCOUNT. I cannot stress this enough. Users that submit multiple entries will be disqualified. Ok here’s how it works. I’m going to ask a question, submit your entry as a comment with your answer. Every user with the correct answer will be put in a drawing for the hat. All entries must be submitted before 9PM eastern time tomorrow night. I will announce the winner shortly after.
Here’s the question: What is Ian Kennedy’s most common nickname around the clubhouse?

LLAMA!!!!! Not sure about the rest of y’all Phil, but those of us down here in Texas call him the llama…efficient and dependable. Come on Ian, hook me up with a second place wrist band or third place shoelace. Also, you gotta get the stirrups back on, haven’t seen you wearin em yet this spring. And please stay far away from Igawa.
Mighty Mouse sounds good.
Dorothy.

I know it’s wrong, but I really didn’t have much of a shot in the first place. Keep up the blogging Phil. You’re awesome.
Dorothy
i love how someone asked on yahoo about this, at 10PM monday night EST. cheaters!!
im gonna go with little moose.
IPK
my brother’s name is Ian… I know for short we call him “E” like Ian without the “an” so I’m gonna go with “E”
IPK
Prez
Little Moose
dimey
Well since you said around the club house i assume it means what the players call him. i would have to guess: Mr. Kennedy
IPK
Kenny.
Dorothy
Icky
Hollywood
IPK
I read that IPK has become pretty popular
I kidnapped a llama once and named it Kennedy after the first time I saw him pitch in Kansas City, so my unofficial answer is definitely llama……. although it might be Trojan Man from his college days. And I definitely, once again, agree with Captain Wiley about the stirrups – we went and bought stirrup socks immediately after that game in KC and wear them every time he pitches!!! Wish we could have seen you throw at Spring Training, but I showed enough love to Ian to make me hoarse for a week!!!! Thanks for yet another giveaway!!
IPK
Mini-Moose
Dorothy (Ooooh my fingers are crossed!)
ipk
Big E or Biggie? I just wanna be different
IPK
IPK
IPK
IPK
man, i checked the blog at lunchtime to see if it the contest was up, and when i look again 500 people have submitted answers? You’ve really gotten quite the following on this site now Phil, and you should be proud.
anyhow, my guess would have been IPK even if 80% of the people here hadn’t already guessed it. Lets hope we’re not all wrong.
I’m gonna say Dorothy. Thanks for the contest.
Good Luck Tomorrow on your Start!!!
E
Sonic. Ian looks like a hedgehog to me, with his spikey hair.
IPK
IPK
IPK
IPK

IPK!!
Gonna guess WWE: Misterrrrrrrrrrrrrrr Kennnnnnnnnnnnedy?
IPK
Little Moose
CALI
IPK
I’ll go with Dorothy, too.
after seeing the picture of Ian holding the baseball, I’m going to say “Robin Williams”, due to the arm hair
“E” ? IPK seems to obvious, and thats more a press thing I think?
Flaco
Mini Moose
E
Dorothy!
Patrick
ipk
Gonna go with President.
Phil, you’re the man.
CALI
I-KEN
Kenny
Thanks for the contest, Phil!
mighty mouse
I’ll go with something different: SoCal.
PK
imagine if youre a catcher and he throws a particularly nasty pitch are you gonna yell ” nice one IPK?
ipk is too awkward to use in casual conversation ergo id say PK
M&M …. just being different and thats what i would call him instead of mini moose!! i would abreviate. M&M is my answer
skills knows whats up keep it short and simple
Dorothy
ipk
Ok, so by now the first person to say “IPK” wins if it’s as simple a nickname as his initials. Whats with people still saying IPK although someone else has already said it?
Little leaguer? lol
Alfred E. Neuman
I’m going to go with Mr. Kennedy. Plus WWE’s Mr. Kennedy is from Green Bay WI, 1 hour away from me, so maybe that will bring some luck!!!
E
I.K.
IPK
Ehh idk…let’s go with Mini Moose.
Kenny!
E
Mighty Mouse
My guess is “Dot” short for Dorothy…
my guess too is IPK, which i got from pete abram over at his blog… i believe i saw that when he was live blogging and ian was pitching. btw, do we get a bonus for knowing the “P” in the name? i believe it’s Patrick which is Ian’s middle name… figured that would be worth a shot!
go yankees!!
I will go with “Pee-Kay” PK.
IPK
IPK
I guess I will go with IPK also. Such a beautiful hat.
IPK!
mighty mouse….man i hope thats right lol
btw phil i have a friend named jeff schnapper coming down to spring training. he has a daughter and 2 sons if i win this and u c him by any small chance, tell him josh housman won this contest. i know thats a crazy request but thanks if u do remember i no that its almost impossible.
Im going to go out on a limb and say his nickname is “ike,” like um…. Ike Turner!
dorothy

“E”
IPK
Alfred E. Neuman
Well, everyone seems to be going with “IPK” as that’s the nickname used by Peter Abraham, and seemingly the other beat writers.
I’m going to go with “Mr. Kennedy” just to be different, though I think that it, too, has been someone’s guess.
E
mr. president
Im not sure why i think this is right, but im gonna go with mighty mouse. its worth taking a shot and to me ipk is just seems to easy.
ipk
IPK
IPK
If I said anything someone already said I basically have no chance of winning so lets go…..PAT
IPK!
ipk, hopefully abraham is helping us out
