Camp Day 2: First workout

[weams]

Who is the player running at 2.00 minute into the video?

Nick. Markakis!

If that is Henry, he doesn't even look like the same guy as last year. Much bigger.

Looks bigger. Doesn't look like 'thin Nick'.

It's Henry.

There is the O's DH. With the contact he was able to make last year and the added weight that should make the ball go further. He is a player to watch in ST.

Schoop looks bigger (more filled out). Makes Flaherty look small.

Schoop is a very big guy.

Here are five things to know about and look out for the Orioles first workout for pitchers and catchers.

1. It starts at noon, and most all the position players have reported as well.

2. Nick is supposedly huge. Is that in a good way?

3. Nolan's neck is permanently affixed to his body.

4. There are a whole lot of new guys. Not just guys fighting for a place in the organization, but guys who legitimately have a shot at breaking camp as members of the 25 man roster. It will be tough to tell them all apart.

5. Yoon is coming today. It will be very crowded in the media room. South Korea is coming along with him.

Those are my second day "gotta knows." How about yours?

Glad to hear about #3. The alternative would be positively medieval.

More than any time I can remember, I'm happy that this phase of the off season is over. Are you going to be in Sarasota?

Edit: I guess you must be if those are your photos. Hoist a few at the Crescent Club for me.

You couldn't tell by how he runs?

Looks too heavy for Nick of the last couple of years. I wanted someone to confirm.

Is that Flaherty, and I'm guessing Alex Gonzalez? Gonzalez is 37, coming off a really bad season, and has never played 2B in the majors. And yet, I wonder if he's got as good a chance as the rest (Weeks, Dejesus) of getting a bench spot.

That's Schoop, not Gonzalez.
