Friars #NoFilter: Adrian Morejon

by Padres Haiku

Adrian Morejon is back! Let’s peek at his IG to see what he’s been up to.

First things first, lets address the 800 pound gorilla in the room. Adrian has a top tier wolf/moon tattoo on his leg. I’m very, VERY interested in how our Cuban king got into wolves like that.
Nothing to see here just a $1,350 Balenciaga sweater. That’s a very nice view to go with all that butter.
You know I’m a sucker for dogs on IG. 15/10. would pet.
In a world where every baseball player has 20 pictures of themselves catching a large mouth bass or a tuna, it’s nice to see Morejon mix it up a little.
Adrian and his family. Perfect. No notes.
