    He only weighs 210 now? Wasn't he 225 or 230 a few years ago? Someone doesn't have as much punch in their bat either at the minor league level. Makes you wonder...........
    Hugs, smiling, and interactive Twitter accounts, don't mean winning baseball. Until this community understands that we are cursed to relive the madness.

    What? He's making money to play the game he loves. I wouldn't hang it up until I didn't have a job anymore.

    well if you have absolutely no other job skills, it is still a check...a very small check, but a check non the less.

    There are a ton of factors. One of them is MLB experience, and Larson has some, so he's making more money than a lot of Minor League players.

    He looks remarkably sad.

    If I am reading this right, he has a .325 OPS with runners on, .410 with runners in scoring position - and .934 with the bases empty.

    Brandon's probably been watching re-runs of "The Rookie" and thinking "Why not me?".
