Twitter Tracker: New Year, Same Great Tweets

By Steve Uhlmann
January 8, 2016

Happy New Year, Shorebirds fans!

While we all are still shaking off the rust and slowly getting back into a groove at work or school, our players are not having the same problem on social media. Many 'Birds have clued fans into their holiday happenings and how they are preparing for the 2016 season. Here are a few of our staff's favorites from the past few weeks.

One fun part of the holiday season is getting the chance to wearing festive apparel that is socially unacceptable for the other 11 months of the year. While most prefer to keep it to the traditional "ugly" sweater, others like to take their fashion to the next level. Words won't do justice to the suit Dylan Rheault (2014) rocked this Christmas.

Guess we know what he'll be wearing for Christmas in July.

Others took time at Christmas to show their appreciation for friends and family on social media, resulting in an "awwww" overload.

From Christmas in July to the real one. Merry Christmas from me and my boy Brandon here

While we've lucked out weather-wise for the last few months, the cold finally moved in. On one dreary day, Chance Sisco (2014) showed his longing for sunny days on the course.

---

It's always to interesting to track what projects players tackle during their downtime in the winter. The always vocal Zeke McGranahan (2015), for example, was proud to show off his cooking skills.

And on cue, Conor Bierfeldt (2015) was there to let him know that he wasn't impressed.

Meanwhile, L.J. Hoes (2009) was learning that making a return to the Orioles is a lot of work.

We feel for ya, buddy.

Finally, Thusday, Jan. 7 marked National Bobblehead Day. Our bobbleheads from throughout the years decided to have an impromptu party on the dugout.

We appreciate all the fans that showed off their favorite Shorebirds bobblehead giveaways, as it made the celebration all the more better. 

Our parent club, the Baltimore Orioles, put out a tremendous video to mark the occasion. Make sure to take a second and check it out.

That's all for Twitter Tracker this time. Keep showing your Shorebirds pride on social media, and who knows, maybe you'll be featured in the next edition!
