    195?

    Tell me you're joking.

    Being 5 ft 10, 195 makes you fat.

    Carlos Hernandez - P, Houston Astros Mar. 8, 3:11 p.m.
    Hernandez, in a battle with Tim Redding for the fifth spot in the rotation, has reported to camp heavier, which is a good thing. He looks considerably bigger than last year, though he claims it's only 10 pounds. He weighed just 145 pounds when he first signed with the Astros, but still threw in the low 90s. Now he says he's up to 195 pounds.
    Fantasy Spin: He has looked impressive in his early starts, throwing five scoreless innings with three strikeouts, and is the early favorite to win the job. (Jim Carley/TSN)

    I saw his pic in spring training-he is not fat, just built.

    Note: It could be the sporting news meant 155 and not 195, but still-the fact he hit the weights this offseason is a great thing.

    He's only half the pitcher Rich Garces is.

    That's a helluva weight-loss system. Can I get some of that?!
