Williamsport Crosscutters catcher Bob Stumpo is a candidate for the best name in all of Minor League Baseball in the 5th Annual MiLB.com Moniker Madness bracket-style tournament.
A total of 64 players started the tournament with Stumpo stomping Auburn's Angelberth Montilla in Round 1 and Mets farmhand Tobi Stoner in Round 2.

The Moniker Madness tournament finals are August 23-25.
