Vogelbach went from SKO

to Schwarber

Look who is throwing chubby stones while living in a house made of butter and medium chili.

Well, if Fat Vogelbach could play 3B, surely skinny Vogelbach can.

Move him back to 3B, Bryant to LF, Schwarber to Catcher.

BOOM.

I like how in the top Vogelbach pic it says third base, but he's wearing a firstbaseman's mitt.

Is there video of high school Vogelbach diving after balls at 3rd base? I'd like to see this.

They're the best stones to throw

I haven't found one yet, but the "60" videos have some nice fat guy sprinting... and the "1B" videos are fielding (OMG, that throwing motion)

That's amazing.

He looked like he was stoking in the BBQ pork chop sandwiches when he was in Kane County.

You can trade anyone currently in the minors except Schwarber.  

What if he doesn't have a position? Maybe McLeod is just publicly saying that he'll stick at catcher to hold up his trade value.

If he can't catch, we're still under the assumption he can play LF, right?

Unless Baez becomes viable again, forcing Bryant to the OF, LF should still be open for Schwarber. 

I think the thing that will force Bryant to the OF is the way he plays 3B.

So Baez has no shot at getting back in the big league lineup this year?

Of course he has a shot. He's got to start hitting though. Injuries and shit happen.

I misread Eli's post as the only thing that would force Bryant to the OF is his play at 3rd. I should learn to read.

He's gonna end up being literally the best 16 inch softball player of all time.

If only Royko were still alive to validate it.

I'm not even sure he's going to hit his way out of extended spring training at this point.

3-14 with 6 Ks so far.

Apparently that's good enough to be hitting 3rd in Iowa's lineup today.
