Just on a side point, the starting SS on the Lakewood Blueclaws (Single A affiliate of the Philadelphia Phillies) is a kid (just turned 18)named Freddy Galvis from Venezuela. The program probably says 5'10"... I think he's 5'8"... but has the fast feet and softest hands I have ever seen... and a good arm. Can't hit very well yet, but offcrKID#1 says he is the best young infielder he has ever played with. He's being groomed to take over for Jimmy Rollins some day.

The Pros seem to love the big guys, but it is already proving out that the really big guys break down easier. Seems to me, the prototypical guy who makes it is 6'2ish, but has worked to utilize every aspect of his size.
