No desire to watch this series or basketball in general, I followed it back when Shaq was in Orlando. But saying baseball players are not "athletes" because some may be fat is pointless. In every major American sport we can pull pictures up of overweight athletes, plus many baseball players excelled in other sports as well in high school. Just like many football/basketball players excelled in multiple sports and made a choice for their respective sport.

I also find it ironic that C.C. Sabathia was one of the baseball players pictured. Sabathia was heavily recruited out of high school as a tight end.

A lot excel at football and basketball growing up and receive scholarships to play other sports. Now players from Dominican and other countries not so much. I mean Jared Lorenz was a back up QB in NfL and was like 300+ pounds and Rams just moved a 400 pound rookie

Wimbledon use to be the shite when I was a kid. We only had 3 or 4 channels and there was only soap operas on all day until Wimbledon. And the U. S. Open is over, buster.

MLB doesn't get meaningful until September. And by then, football takes over. Post-Finals summer sports are awful in non-WC years...
