i'm not sure if I'm just reading it wrong or whatever, but Cecil had a 14 year pro career (including those two in Japan in between playing for the Jays and Detroit Tigers). That's pretty solid in my book, obese or not.
Went back and looked, because of your post and saw his career #'s.....didnt realize he had that long of a career....lengthened by the DH, however a long career still, I stand corrected, although Prince is still going to have to do something as he starts aging...he is too heavy.
