Timmy to Grace SI Cover (MLB Midseason Awards Edition)

Baggs is saying in the Merc that Timmy Franchise will grace the cover of next week's SI.

Over at SI.com, Tom Verducci has posted the 1000+ word feature that run along side the cover shot.

Who woulda thought that a Giant would be the coverboy for the SI midseason MLB awards?

By the way, as with all Timmy news, they're gonna love this one up here in Seattle. At least the M's got an 8th inning set up man for the worst team in baseball instead of the best local player in history!

I'm not sure I'm a fan of Verducci's super creative nicknames (The Freak, Tiny Tim), but it's nice to see some national love and an in depth profile of our boy.

BTW - this may be the cover shot (below).
