The Houston Astros were monumentally bad in 2013, racking up 111 losses while finishing 45 games out of first place in the American League West.

Perhaps those numbers are why the team's bullpen coach, Craig Bjornson, looks like this while taking a photo earlier this month in preparation for the 2014 season.

You know, it's always good when the other team is afraid to face you, but it's not so good when little children are frightened, too.

It's too bad -- Bjornson may be the nicest guy on Earth, we don't know. He may have a great baseball mind, too. But, unfortunately, for him, all we get from this photo is he's really adept at giving a look that says, "I'm scary, but also scared."

We know players may not look their best in spring training, but let's hope the same can be said for coaches.
