Some disappointed Detroit Tigers rooters raise a large question: Do certain players need a diet coach before the 2013 season?
Yahoo! Sports blogger David Brown commented on Fielder and Miguel Cabrera with an observation that gains added impact now:Overweight guys can be among the most productive sluggers in the game. All Tigers owner Mike Ilitch wants to do is win a World Series, at any cost, and the Tigers are closer than they were without Fielder — no matter how much he weighs."
It was a nice thought at the time.
