Josh Thole's Nickname: T-HOLE

I know everyone's excited about this guy. And I know that Mets fans tend to love scrappy players who just seem to hit and seem to have a good attitude and work ethic (GRISSION). Well, I think Thole definitely has a chance to be the new Daniel Murphy for the next few years, or if he never gets a fair shake with the Mets, the next Jeff Keppinger.
Anyway, we need a nickname for Thole. I saw someone call him Thor. I feel like this doesn't work as surely a Norse god would have more power than Thole has exhbited. Therefore, I suggest T-HOLE.
You see, T-HOLE is simple, sounds sorta dirty and sounds very blue collar. My dad and I have already started calling him T-HOLE. What do you all think? I know it's very name-suggestive and everyone is sick of A-Rod, K-Rod, I-rod, Gonzo, etc. However, I don't think T- Hole will be too similar to what other people are called because how many people's names end with "Hole". The only one I can think of is Pujols, and that's a stretch.
I welcome alternate suggestions in the comments.

I can dig The Ole
I guess I’m on a spelling/wordplay kick.
It’ll work especially well if he proves to be bad at blocking pitches in the dirt.
not that it needs to be said, but...
Pujols is a stretch but I guess that would make him A – hole :P
He's all reay

Is that to the tune of
Jose, Jose, Jose, Joseee, Joseeeeee, Joseee?
"We must win and we must know how to win rather than win because we have statistical people."
I like that one.
Gas prices today are a lot like a pitcher's ERA. Anything under 3 is amazing, under 4 is pretty good and anything 5 and up is something you want to avoid.

There is a noticeable lack of good nicknames in the MLB nowadays. A-Rod, that’s just a simple contraction. K-Rod, at least that’s a little better, but still boring.
We need good ones, something like Luis “The Spanish Goat” Castillo. I don’t know why, but “Spanish Goat” popped into my head immediately, so…

Yeah, we need to figure out how to make that mainstream.

Castillo
If Castillo knew you called him “Spanish” instead of Dominican, he might be the one calling you a “Cabron”.
The 'Hispanic Goat', then. I use Spanish as an all-encompassing term, but, yeah, it should be 'Hispanic Goat'.
