Russ is Skinny

I'd heard some reports that he lost weight, but figured it was in the same way Mando had lost weight. But I was just checking out the ST Blog and wow.. he really is much skinnier than I've ever seen him. Even the blogger notes that he thinks Russ is smaller now than in his rookie year.

I for one wasn't thrilled with the Ortiz signing, but seeing the picture of him has me a little more optimistic.

Scroll down to the pictures.

Re: Russ is Skinny
Ortiz without a gut, I'm shocked!!!

Hopefully it will translate on the field, the Giants could use 200+ innings of 4-ish ERA.

Re: Russ is Skinny
Russ actually looks pretty good. Although they could have used the weight he lost to fill out Timmeh Time a bit.

Re: Russ is Skinny
Walker and Molina looked skinnier than I expected, too.  And as the guy pointed out, Cain looks like he's in great shape.

I hope Morris keeps the beard off.

Biggest mankinder in the history of no brain.

Elbow
Check out the picture of Russ on the main page of sfgiants.com.  He's always done something funny with the start of his windup.  Kind of short arm or something, but that elbow is tucked ridiculously close to his body.  Hope he's worked out whatever was wrong with his delivery, but that picture isn't real encouraging.
