MLB Look-alikes: Julian Tavarez and Freddy Krueger

The Golden Sombrero presents MLB Look-alikes: Julian Tavarez and Freddy Krueger

I met the guy in Chicago when I was 12 and let me tell you, he’s scarier than Freddy Krueger.

Still, nothing compares to Julian Taverez’s explanation on why he signed with the Washington Nationals:

From the Washington Post:

“Why did I sign with the Nationals?” Tavarez said told a group of reporters. “When you go to a club at 4 in the morning, and you’re just waiting, waiting, a 600-pounder looks like J. Lo. And to me this is Jennifer Lopez right here. It’s 4 in the morning. Too much to drink. So, Nationals: Jennifer Lopez to me.”

“I would like to be a starter, but it’s like my father said: ‘You want Jennifer Lopez, but does she want you? No.’ You just take whatever she is giving to you. So I just take whatever they give to me,” Tavarez said. “They give to me as a long man, I take it as a long man. Set up man, I take it. Starter, I take it. I can do whatever.”

    Classic Tavarez.

    “You know, Pedroia, he’s gonna be a good player someday. He’s just gotta start paying attention.”

    Tavarez has a better chance of getting a date with Freddy than J Lo.
