So sweet, so obscure

There are nicknames (a la Coco Crisp, although Covelli Loyce Crisp isn't bad) and then there's the real thing. Sugar Ray Marimon is the real thing -- apparently.

Hard to find much about Sugar Ray, although there's no evidence that's anything but his real name. A Colombian, he's a pitcher in the Kansas City system. Last year, he had a rough six-game stretch with the Burlington Royals of the Appalachian League. Not sure where he'll be this season, but the fact remains: His name is Sugar Ray.

Anyone know anything else about this guy? I'm assuming his parents were boxing fans.
