Watching him play yesterday, I kept thinking of Dave Winfield. He's got the same style of play that looks like he's functioning at half-speed, while he's actually motoring.

I was hoping someone on the Brewers would try taking third on him. I wanted to see him air one out.

I believe that's the one part of his game we haven't seen yet, have we?

Bump.

Showed up to camp 25 pounds heavier.

Unless he looks like Prince Fielder, let the juicing rumors begin.

So do we file this under DOOOOOOOOOM, or does it matter whatsoever?  Asking for a friend.

I'm not going to say he's not juicing. He probably is and so are Prince Fielder and Tony Campana. But for a 22-year-old to gain 25 pounds isn't that crazy. It's when the 32 year olds do it that you raise your eyebrow. If I recall correctly Yasiel Puig gained a bunch of weight before last season too. I think that there might be a difference in training and nutrition between here and Cuba. Also, all baseball players do PEDs so there's that.

Yeah. Well and this could be the first offseason since he came to the US where he could focus on building muscle rather than rehabbing one of his many injuries. There are logical reasons but who the fuck cares because DINGERS.
I will vow, for the sake of peace, not to complain about David Ross between now and his first start next year- 10/26/2015

If he makes this season half as much fun as Sosa made his juice years, sign me up.

Is there anywhere in the Caribbean where it isn't? Other than the US-held islands like St. Thomas and Puerto Rico?

Legal in what sense?  Doctors legally prescribe some steroids for all kinds of reasons.  Maybe he is taking them for that nasty skin condition.  Shingles can be a bitch.

Every non-US port in the Caribbean has a pharmacy pretty much the second thing off the pier (after the liquor store). The biggest print in the windows are for Viagra, Xanax and Anabolics. All over the counter stuff down there.

Good to know, since I'm heading to Jamaica in a few weeks. Guess I should stock up on cream, clear, and dick pills.
