Name that Sox - Dec. 22

I'm stealing an idea from a colleague of mine. Deal with it.
The game is simple. I put up a photo of a Red Sox player (former or current) and you must guess who that player is. Depending on the player, I will give you a hint or two.
The first person who replies with the correct answer, wins! What do you win, you ask? Bragging rights! The greatest prize in all of the world. And hey, maybe I'll keep a tally of the winners and we can have an overall champ or something before the season starts.
Rules: Not many. You can guess as many times as you'd like, but please do one at a time. I'll answer each guess as they come in. Whoever guesses the right name first (by time), wins.
Sound like fun? Want to play? Alright, well here's the first one. Guess away!:
Hint? Uhhh ... you don't get one this time. I don't think this one will be too hard. Enjoy.

The Rooster - Rick Burleson
If not, it sure looks like him.
I gotta go 'cause I'm probably definitely gonna nod out again.

No
I’m just familiar with the mid-late 70s Sox.

I didn't have it.
This is my mental picture of Burleson:
He looks very different without the ’stache.
Manny ain't the only bad man.

I did Google when I first saw your comment. It’s close, but it’s the Rooster.

I think the site with the Doyle-as-Burleson photos are mislabeled. But it’s okay, all white people look the same to me too.
Manny ain't the only bad man.

That looks pretty persuasive to me.

Alright, we’ll split the points here since it isn’t 100 percent decisive.
Nice job, Fisk.
A new one will be up at noon.
