Mclaughlin Scorpler is a lineup player for the Hades Tigers and has been with the team since the start of Season 4, when Scorpler was traded from the New York Millennials due to a blessing.

Official League Records

Debut

Scorpler joined the league in Season 1, playing for the New York Millennials.

Season 3

During the Season 3 election results, Scorpler was the randomly selected player from a randomly selected team to be traded for the Hades Tigers's worst hitter, Alyssa Harrell, as dictated by the Exile blessing.

Season 5

During the Season 5 election results, Scorpler received both the Fireproof Jacket and Noise-Cancelling Headphones blessings. However, because players can only use one armor item each, the Headphones replaced the Jacket entirely. The Fireproof Jacket later appeared up for grabs in the Season 6 elections.

History

Scorpler has traditionally worn the official jacket sported by Ryan Gosling in the 2011 film Drive on top of their Blaseball jersey while at bat. They both share the same birthday and Gosling himself presented Scorpler with the jacket as a birthday present. They have been happily married for 12 years.

There have been reports from Hollywood journalists that Scorpler and Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson are on shaky terms. This is likely due to a recent fight between the two after Johnson refused to accept Scorpler as the one true Scorpion King.

Scorpler does not have a driver's license. However, this has not stopped them from driving for the ride-sharing app Uber. Since being traded to the Hades Tigers, Scorpler is no longer contractually obligated to have a "side hustle," but has chosen to continue driving for Uber anyway.

Since moving to Hades, Scorpler has worked closely with fellow batter Fish Summers on a business venture designing luxury, jumbo sized enclosure decorations. Whilst no goods are yet ready for market, Scorpler has been quoted as saying “the treasure chest is especially going to slap.”

Fireproof Jacket

During the Season 5 elections, the Blaseball Gods blessed Scorpler with a Fireproof Jacket and approximately 1,200 pairs of tiny, scorpion-sized Noise-Cancelling Headphones. Later, Scorpler showed up to practice without the fireproof jacket, stating that they "have no clue where it went" and that they "prefer mine anyway."

The Commissioner's version of the story is that "scorpler tried on the jacket, then took it off and chose the headphones. no one else put on the jacket."[1] Scorpler's teammates also reported that Scorpler had to choose between wearing the fireproof jacket, and wearing the cool scorpion jacket, and ultimately made the right decision.
