    Yeah, my sources say acuna didn’t travel bc he was finishing up the mlb network documentary on him. It is called “The Greatest Ever... Seriously, the Best.” He should be ready tomorrow

    Check out Matt Kemp, he's lost weight again. Hit a 3 run bomb today.

    Reminds me of last year when skinny Kemp got off to a great start then hurt his leg and put on 50 lbs (actual number according to DOB) over the summer.

    He's noticeably much smaller than last year.

    How does someone put on 50 lbs in a few months?

    That is an insane amount of food to eat coupled with an almost completely sedentary lifestyle.

    Kemp is obviously a southerner, right?

    From Mark Bradley:

    “I mentioned afterward to a Braves employee that Kemp appeared to have gained 30 pounds during the season. (He’d come to camp proclaiming that he’d dropped 15 over the winter, and he did have a pretty good first half.) The Braves man said: “More like 50 for me.”“

    That’s just a ridiculous amount of weight to gain so quickly. I understand Kemp is a large man even when fit, but there are practical limits to how much fat a human can accumulate.

    He would have had to put on 10+ lbs per month while playing baseball for 3 hours per day, plus whatever prep time. That’s not exactly swimming laps to burn calories, but it’s not sedentary either.

    50 lbs over a long summer is not so much.

    That's not good. Makes sense that he's dropping. Might want to start throwing a cutter or 2 seamer.
