Once he ended up in Philadelphia, Werth experimented a bit with different iterations of the beard, but the one common thread was the extended flavor savor, running from his bottom lip down his chin. (Getty Images/Jeff Zelevansky)

He even abbreviated it for his press conference when he signed with the Nationals prior to the 2011 season. There he is with Nats GM Mike Rizzo, his beard barely present. (Getty Images/Mitchell Layton)

2011
It wasn't until the end of the 2011 season that the beard really began to show signs of the life it would take on. Here's Werth in a matchup against the Braves in early September of that year. (Getty Images/Jim McIsaac)

2012
And then, in 2012, much like the team he plays for, the beard grew into its own. Just look at that thing in all its glory. (Getty Images/Mike Ehrmann)

Yep. That's Jayson Werth. Skinny, beardless, glasses-wearing Jayson Werth was once an Orioles prospect back in the day after being selected by Baltimore with the 22nd overall pick in the 1997 Draft out of Glenwood High School in Chatham, Illinois. (Bowman Baseball Card)
