It kinda looks like he is floating off the ground a bit.

Add Polanco's head and Maybin's lip to the list, if you would. I only add Maybin's lip because I know people will eventually take it too far if we don't squash it now.

What's the deal with his lip? I haven't noticed anything seemingly amiss.
