MLB All Fat Guy Team for 2010

Who Are Major League Baseball's Best Fat Players?

Kevin J Chong
From Ichiro to Babe Ruth, baseball has long been known as a sport that people of all shapes and sizes can play and excel at. Americans love big fat guys and baseball so why not combine the two? Here is a look at the MLB All Fat Guy Team. The players were chosen based upon their size and current skill level.

MLB All Fat Guy Team C
Bengie Molina (5' 11" 225) - The undisputed slowest man in baseball has the body to match.

MLB All Fat Guy Team 1B
Prince Fielder (5' 11" 268) -The son of one of the most all time fat MLB players, Cecil Fielder, Prince shows the apple doesn't fall far from the tree. Ironically, the big boned slugger is a vegetarian.

MLB All Fat Guy Team 2B
Ronnie Belliard (5' 10" 214 ) - One of the smaller members of the team, the stocky Belliard is still a big man for a middle infielder.

MLB All Fat Guy Team 3B
Pablo Sandoval (5'11" 246) - Appropriately nicknamed the Kung Fu Panda for his agility despite his very wide and round shape.

MLB All Fat Guy Team SS
Jhonny Peralta (6'1" 210) - The portly Peralta had to move out of SS to 3B because his range was diminishing.

MLB All Fat Guy Team LF
Carlos Lee (6' 2" 240) - Just look at him and you'll see they are being kind with their 240 pound listing.

MLB All Fat Guy Team CF
Andruw Jones (6' 1" 240) - Once regarded as baseball's best defensive center fielder, Jones was only used as a DH last year with the Rangers.

MLB All Fat Guy Team RF
Lance Berkman (6' 1" 220) - One look at Berkman and nobody needs to ask why he's called the Big Puma.

MLB All Fat Guy Team DH
Miguel Cabrera (6' 4" 240) -Upon first arrival to the MLB, Cabrera was able to play outfield and 3B. His weight went up and soon he was infield only. Just last year the Tigers realized he was so fat he could no longer play 3B anymore and had to move him to 1B. Even there, he still is playing sub par defense due in big part to his massive weight gain.

MLB All Fat Guy Team SP
CC Sabathia (6' 7" 290) - At 290 lbs, the contract isn't the only thing fat about CC Sabathia.

MLB All Fat Guy Team CL
Johnathen Broxton (6' 4" 290)
Broxton weighs just as much as Sabathia, but is 3 inches shorter!

BN - Jack Cust (6' 1" 231)
BN - Matt Stairs (5' 9" 210)
BN - Juan Uribe (6' 225)

Other Notes:
The team would be managed by Charlie Manuel and Umpired by Cowboy Joe West.
