Michael Chavis is Working Hard to Change His Players' Weekend Nickname to 'Ice Horse'

Major League Baseball's Players' Weekend is supposed to cater to every element that makes a baseball player unique.

But what happens when circumstances change and players do not get the correct nickname?

That is the current situation for Boston Red Sox slugger Michael Chavis, who has the nickname "Chief" instead of "Ice Horse" on the back of his "Players' Weekend" jersey, thanks in totality to the timing of the initial request.

Chavis was given said nickname by Barstool Sports' Secton 10 podcast shortly after being promoted. He embraced the nickname, of course, and it ended up turning into a brand. From shirts to photos on social media to bizarre masks, the moniker has become widely popular.

Many Red Sox fans were caught off guard when they saw Chavis did not have "Ice Horse" selected, but don't worry. There's a very reasonable explanation here, and the man himself is doing his due diligence.

It was a good thing Chavis clarified why he had the wrong nickname, because otherwise, the league would have been flooded with tweets pleading for them to change it. Players' Weekend is not until the end of August (the 23-25), so hopefully these threads aren't in production yet and we have just enough time to get the right nickname for Chavis.
