- ADAM JONES: Mr. Jones, Jonesy
- MATT WIETERS: Wiety, Matthew the Brave
- NICK MARKAKIS: Kakes, Nick the Stick, 'Kis of Death, Nicky-Boy
- ROBERT ANDINO: Dino
- MARK REYNOLDS: Bonk, Reyn-Man, Butterfingers, The Boatman (because his throws sail aimlessly towards the horizon)
- JJ HARDY: J-Hard, Party Hardy
- JAKE ARRIETA: Jake the Snake, Jaker's Dozen
- WEI-YIN CHEN: The Chentertainer
- TSUYOSHI WADA: Wada-Bing (Wada-BOOM to be added when a strikeout is recorded)
