Gus Varland, on rehab assignment because he was hit in the hand by a line drive, gets….hit by a line drive on the first batter he faces. This time, Varland remained in the game and seemed fine. [via Curt Hogg on Twitter]

Tony Rich
Can we call him AR?
It will take care of itself when he doesn’t pick 15 as his number.
Lol
Tony the Pony
Ant man cmon now
A Rich
I’m glad. I really don’t wanna call our guy AR15.
I bet he wears #0
AR2.0
ARICH. Because he’s gonna make us rich with SB rings. Go Shoe
AR15 is a great nickname for a QB
I feel like he’ll take 0 or 1 as his number

#00
I want to hear everyone at Lucas yelling… AROO!!!!
I respect it.
Assuming he decides to avoid the number 15 because of this, it looks like the available numbers right now are 0, 1, 5, and 7. I guess he’d be better positioned to pay someone for their number than a rookie would have been before NIL, but of those numbers I think 7 would be my pick.
AR15 is a lit nickname though
I still see folks not calling him Shaquille Leonard. When someone asks you to stop, you respect it. It’s just as bad as deadnaming.
Hell no, double down. AR15! Let’s go!
That’s too bad, AR15 would be epic. Fits Indiana perfectly
Probably per manager/PR wishes
AR69 it is then
His new nickname will happen organically, if he gets one. Hope he likes it here in Indy. Best of lu… um.. good fortune to him?
Please select #2. R2 is the way
AR10…higher caliber
Literally just a pick a new number and the nickname will disappear
I hope he doesn’t change his number. 15 is such a cool QB number
Booooo
Anthony Richardzyn
He’ll be gone in 3 years or less so it won’t matter anyway 🤣🤣🤣
Dang it I really wanted to make a joke about finally having weapons on offense again. Ok this is me making the joke. But ok last time lol.
Simp
No thanks. It’s too good of a nick name. You don’t always get to pick your own nickname and in this case your request is denied.

T-Rich?
I’m going with Richy Rich
Andrei Kirilenko.
I like the idea of him picking up number 1 and being A1R
I’ve heard him called an alien because of his otherworldly athletic ability. Maybe there’s a play on that.
I like AR15… But I get it. Tony Rich. It would be cool to get some kind of chant like soccer: Tony tony Rich, Tony tony Rich, TONY TONY RICH UNTIL I DIE.
EDIT: IM TONY FUCKIN RICH, IM TONY FUCKIN RICH, IM TONY FUCKIN RICH UNTIL I DIE TONY TONY TONY.
He’s a bust anyways, so.
Really mature is what i’m getting from him and ngl it’s kinda nice to read this
Or just King Richard
