Listed at 6-2/190.  Not sure if he's quite at "big fella" levels.

That's not to say I'm not extremely excited about him this year.

He’s 225+, I saw him in person.

Buck says he 's lost a bunch of body fat and remains about the same weight.  Nugget

Brady bulked him up nice.

Looks so scrawny in his baseball card on his baseball cube page, doesn't even look like the same person.

Yeah, that is what he looked like when I saw him play for Lynchburg.

I want to go to his rehab place for my shoulder...

He'll definitely be staying the 45 days...After that who knows how well he is doing.

Could just be a camp monster this year, but with Trumbo out to begin the season, I definitely want to see Santander get some early, reasonably consistent at bats. He should be regularly starting in left or at DH in the beginning of the year unless he slumps significantly over the next few weeks.

Anyone who has been able to watch a good number of games this spring have an opinion on how his defense has looked?

The part that got me was "hope that Santander, Austin Hays and Trey Mancini can man the outfield for the next several years."

Umm....

Santander seems to be built like Nelson Cruz. Is that fair to say?

Not the best defensive outfield out there...

Santander in LF, Mullins in CF, and Hays in RF with Mancini at DH/1B.  That sounds much better.
