Yes, that's Michael Morse in a magazine, jumping into a pool fully clothed in his new spread in Athlete's Quarterly. According to @aq_mag's Twitter profile, "Athletes Quarterly is the upscale lifestyle magazine for current and former professional athletes." And nothing says upscale current professional athlete like diving in a pool in a tux. Fantastic.
And by now, you've probably read Michael Morse's explanation of his Cobra Snake technique and watched the video breakdown of his swing. Below, is how Michael Morse's swing looks in print in this month's ESPN the Magazine spread:
Both images of Michael Morse in print lovingly lifted from Michael Morse's Facebook Page, which has provided us with more than enough blog fodder to get us through the winter.

Is it Opening Day yet?
If Morse has another big year, he could end up with some more magazine spots and this time they will be the paid advertising type of spots.
When AQ does a piece on you, that is big time.
While most realize that Ryan Zimmerman's Geico commercial may be the best ad he ever gets, don't be surprised to see Madison Avenue calling on Michael Morse for bigger spots and Zim will have to settle for something like "Thompson Creek Windows".

You can't have too much Michael Morse. Not possible.
