Seeing as how Eric Gagne reported to spring training with a monster beard, shaved it down to a goatee and has now grown it back, all within the span of two pay periods, the question is begging to be asked: Are we going to see the reliever's beard eventually linked to PEDs?

Also, what nickname should we use for such a growth, assuming Gagne will stick in that closer spot?
The Beer City Bush?
The Lou Albano? (Picked that one from a Deadspin commenter)
Captain Blownsavebeard?
$10 Million Worth of Neglect?
Milwaukee's Hairiest?
Let's hear 'em, folks ...

Throw another 75 pounds on him, and just call him the prototypical Wisconsinite.

Or, add an accent: La Barbé
Sounds like "The Barbie", which based on the way he pitched yesterday, I might rather have pitching for the Brewers.

Hair-ric Gagne?
How 'bout just amazing? Because that's what that beard is. I heard he's not shaving til he gets a save...
I also like the French Canadian Face Forest, the Hairroid, and La Barbé.
