The article said he ballooned up to 196 pounds(!) in October 2011, after finishing the 2010 season at 160 pounds.

Re: The Best Shape of My Life 2012 edition

Bronson Arroyo thinks his velocity will be back.

“The ball feels better coming out of my hand in long toss,” he said. “Off the mound, it’s a little harder to tell. But as far as long toss, I’m definitely feeling better. This is as healthy as I’ve been in a long time. My arm’s always been healthy. But my back’s been banged up for years. I think that’s affected flexibility.

“I’m as healthy and flexible as I’ve been in a lot of years.”

Maybe not "shape", but close enough.

Re: The Best Shape of My Life 2012 edition

Jay Bruce reportedly showed up 15 pounds lighter and Homer Bailey packed ON 15 pounds...coincidence? I'll hunt down the articles later when I have more time.
