I didn't relize that Todd and I had so much in common with our winter workouts until I read the article in today's News Sentinel.
I especially like this quote of Todd's, "I just ate like a pig. I really did," Helton said Friday. "I didn't watch what I ate, I wasn't worried about putting on bad weight with the good. I just ate."
Figuring more mass would equal more power, Helton spent more time at the table and lifted heavier weights. He reported to spring training at 220 pounds - about 20 more than the end of last season - and is noticeably larger across his upper body.
