Seriously, the Ruth and Vaughn pictures posted, those dudes look anorexic compared to this dude.

The Moe Vaughn pictures floated on this thread are from his early days in Boston and not representative of how much of a fat pig he ballooned into as he ate his way out of town.

I was so fucking pissed when they picked up Panda and Hanley in the same offseason...being so optimistic that you would believe that Sandoval would not be horribly fat AND Ramirez would actually care in the slightest is surely grounds for being issued a straight jacket and being placed in a rubber room.

There are surely pitchers who were probably fatter than Sandoval, including Jumbo Brown, likely baseball's first 300 pounder. It's tougher if you limit it to position players, but Fielder Pere and Fils have to be in the running.

Cecil actually looks pretty svelte in that shot.

Mo Vaughn got busted for hitting a parked car while driving home drunk from the Foxy Lady (his home away from home) and his high priced lawyer argued that his client only failed the field sobriety tests because he was too obese to possibly to do things like stand on one leg.

Seriously, it happened.

Forgot to make it absolutely clear that was while Mo was still playing for the Bosox!
Starting position player, too fat to be able to balance on one leg...


The facepalm is not for you.

It is for Mo Vaughn, the fat pig who got the monster contract and then ate his way out of town.

And who the Mets saw eat himself out of Boston and said "I'd bet he'd be great on a team without a DH".

The Angels were actually the ones who were stupid enough to spirit Mo away from Boston before the Mets doubled down on stupid.
Mo didn't even really deserve the MVP he got, Albert Belle had a far better year and was mobile enough to play OF.
