Re: watching the WBC and Yadier Molina looks way thinner!!
My wife has been out of town for a few days, and last night I took our 9 year old daughter to our neighborhood Italian restaurant for dinner. We sat down at the bar, and they had the Puerto Rico vs. Spain game on. After a few minutes, there was a dustup when a batter for Spain got plunked, and Yadi was being Yadi about it.
My daughter asked who the catcher was. I told her that it was Yadi Molina, he plays for the Cardinals, and he's a bum. She promptly responded: "Go Spain!" |

Can we just put an embargo on steroid / weight speculation threads?

Re: watching the WBC and Yadier Molina looks way thinner!!
Molina is a catcher... OK, you knew that. Molina is in the highest level of baseball b/c of his catching. Hitting, running... not why he plays in MLB. He is a very good catcher. Fielding, game calling, base steals, etc.
Perhaps he is smart enough to realize the the knees (legs period) are crucial to continue being a MLB catcher. He is not getting any younger and less weight is key to keeping strong legs/knees for a long season. I doubt Molina will stick around late in his career as a DH/1B/PH type of guy. He knows as he turns 31 this summer, that it gets tougher doing the job that keeps him in MLB. The anti Corky Miller approach.

Re: watching the WBC and Yadier Molina looks way thinner!!
Oh dear lord can we stop with this please? It's not because he's a Cardinals player. I've had this stance since Jose Bautista threads appeared here years ago. It's foolish to allude or speculate to something when there is no evidence showing that a player is using. Yes, Yadier looks thinner. He had some weight to lose though. I'm going to blame that on good nutrition rather than anything nefarious.
