Spring Training 2013

Of the 25 we expect to make the Big team, what player do you think is most likely to show up to Spring Training Overweight and Out of Shape? A La Austin Kearns.

Phillips - No Way
Votto - Never
Bruce - may be leaner than last year for CF duty
Broxton - hmmm, can't be worse than last year
Chapman, Bailey - could use a few more lb's

I'll go with Mike Leake.

Re: Spring Training 2013

Read reports where people thought Bruce looked like he had lost weight but he said he hadn't. Hoping to see everyone come in upset over end of last season and dedicated this off season in great shape and ready to go!!

Re: Spring Training 2013

If someone told me a Reds' starting pitcher had showed up over-weight, I'd expect it to be Latos as opposed to Leake.

Re: Spring Training 2013

I find it hard to see any of these guys coming in way over weight. This doesn't seem like a team with that type of guy on it. I guess if I had to pick one it would be Broxton, but he's been a big boy his whole career. I don't see him coming in a weight that is dramatically heavier than when he's been successful.
