Giambi named one of most superstitious athletes

Giambi named one of most superstitious athletes, Jason Giambi is nothing if not colorful. The Rockies’ backup first baseman and pinch-hitting slugger has played for the Oakland A’s, the mighty Yankees and the Rockies. Wherever he’s gone, he’s left an impression as big as his biceps.

Which makes him the perfect candidate for The Denver Post’s “Fan Mail” feature.

Ask Giambi about the Rockies’ chances to make the postseason, and whether they can do some damage if they get there.

Ask him about his Yankees years.

Or ask him about his superstitions. He was, after all, named one of sport’s most superstitious athletes by Men’s Fitness magazine. Something to do with wearing gold thong underwear.
