He was playing kind of beefy last year too (no way he was 210) so I wouldn't be too worried about it for this year.

I still have him as my #3. Last year was such a historical season that I refuse to allow any pre season conditioning issues to influence his value.
Here's the pitch on the way, a swing and a belt! Left field! Way back! BLUE JAYS WIN!

Probably not. Closest guys I can think of are Kemp and Larry Walker. They were both probably in the mid-220s. I'm guessing there have been quite a few guys in that 210-220 type range who were big time power speed guys (Mondesi, Canseco, Bichette). I doubt Trout finishes Spring Training at anything over 230.
Yeah he could/should trim some in the next month and a half...
Hanley mighta been 230ish a few years ago..
I just think it's discouraging to have yet another significant variable regarding Trout. I know he was amazing last year but I can't help but think you're rolling the dice a bit with him.
Why don't they just get a house that's already painted?

He will lose a bunch of weight in spring training and this will be a moot point.
90% of my posts are from complaining about my team

It would take a hulk-like figure to go 50/50, right?

Ever draft by poundage?
May think about going for the all Heavy Weight Team. There are some bigger boys swinging that lumber!
