What does he look like he'd be doing for a living, if he weren't playing baseball?

Substitute Teacher

Picking a random blog comment and wielding it as a club to bash "blogs" is like picking a random romance novel off an airport bookstore shelf and saying, "This book sucks. Fuck you, Tolstoy -- your medium is worthless!" - Ken Tremendous

Struggling business unit manager

working paycheck to paycheck just trying to make ends meet so that he can support his wife and four kids. He has his eye on that VP’s corner office but will never see it, because he does just enough work to do his job never going above and beyond what’s called of him. He’ll eventually retire a bitter bitter relatively broke old man that’s been divorced three times.

I was going to say

a Viking, but yours is more steeped in realism. I still like Viking, though.

Fake Jim Kelly?

Right around the time all the young talent is ready to contend is when the organization will realize that Ron Washington is the wrong man for the job.

A guy who will go

"John Buck"

In this case, I think we have a guy who fits his name to a tee. Not only is he John Buck, but he looks like a guy that would be named “John Buck”.

Meh

He looks alot like the last 2 submissions.

How about you roll out some fine young man of guidoesque lineage? Or maybe a puerto rican?

Puerto Ricans = comedy gold.
