Nick Franklin's Quest for 200

[Havok1517]

While Pablo Sandoval's weight is again a controversy and people are talking about how many pounds Mike Trout put on this offseason, one prospect for the Seattle Mariners is on the opposite end of the weight spectrum. He's desperately trying to add it.
Nick Franklin, a 21-year-old shortshop who was the Mariners' first-round pick in 2009, eats 6,500 calories per day in a quest to reach 200 pounds. So far, it's working. Franklin weighed 162 at the end of last season and reported to training camp at 196, according to The Seattle Times.
