Royals' Tattoos

Paulo Orlando, the Brazilian Bomber and Triple Master, was recently photographed after getting a tattoo of himself playing for the Royals (see below). The tattoo commemorates his debut with KC, and is seriously awesome. I loved watching Orlando play last season, and will love him even more now that I know that he is willing to permanently etch his own likeness on his skin. I really hope we see him beat the living tar out of the White Sox’s Brett Lawrie in 2016, then tattoo a series of images depicting the beating across his torso. Viva la Paulo!

I thought it would be fun to imagine some other Royals tattoos that would be enjoyable to see: 

• Salvy's Gatorade showers are now legendary. So why not get a tattoo of Salvy splashing himself?

• Wade Davis is the best reliever in baseball, partly because his pitches are insanely nasty, and partly because of the Death Stare that he gives each batter. So why not add an EXTRA Death Stare to Wade's forehead, providing an additional set of menacing eyes to scare the batter?

•  During the 2014 playoffs, Lorenzo Cain became renowned for his ability to catch any ball hit within the same zip code in which he was standing. Why not commemorate his superhuman ability with a tattoo showing his range, which spans across all of North America and into the Atlantic Ocean?

• Jonny Gomes' mic drop was one of the best events in KC sports history. Jonny should ink that moment into his head so all of Japan will know the Royals beat 'that guy too' when he plays baseball there this season.
  

• If I was Ned Yost, I would forever commemorate the Royals' 2015 World Series Championship with a neck tattoo so all the haters could suck it. #Yosted 
  

Spring Training is now here, so maybe some of the other Royals players will show off some new ink!
