The Snider Stache
















It appears as though the young Travis Snider is going for a grown up look in 2011.

As part of the Cito Gaston's retirement ceremony last September Travis Snider sported a fake mustache in honour of the Hall of Fame manager.  With this new look Snider promptly smashed a first inning solo shot, not only propelling the Jays into the lead but also providing them with their 245th homer run of the season, a new franchise record.

Obviously Travis has identified the "power of the Stache" for the 2011 season and will try to harness it's power in an attempt to be a potent slugger in the Jays line up.

But the larger question still looms, where does Travis Snider's "stache" rank against the classic baseball mustache?

Here are a few famous baseball "staches" that should be considered when making a comparison.






So what do you think, does the young Snider Stache have promise or is it nothing but peach fuzz?
