    I've noticed this before, too.
    SBR Odds uses the first initial from the pitcher's legal/birth given name.

    Thomas Andrew Pomeranz
    Edward Bennett Lively
    Michael Lance Lynn
    David Dewitt "Homer" Bailey

    Thank you for mentioning this. We are constantly trying to make the contest page run as seamless as possible. With the Pitchers names the aforementioned ones actually have formal names that our feed picked up rather than the usual name players call them. This has been addressed and hoping it will be corrected going forward. If you guys see these type of things before us please PM me . I will then address it. Thank you all again.

    Lots of names are fukked up.

    Brian Dozier always has the wrong first initial. Same with D. Greinke, the ace pitcher for the Diamondbacks.

    I never would have known either. I'm a Royals fan and watch many of their games and back when Greinke played in KC Rex Hudler mentioned something about Zack being his middle name and not his first. After seeing a few more goofy first initials on SBR Odds I started googling the players to see what their real names were.
