I've just heard the Babe Ruth was fat claim many times...it's like the Ty Cobb is evil claim...invented by unscrupulous reporters. Ruth got down to first faster than most players in the game until he was about 29 and didn't become too slow until even later.

At any rate, it's not just the weight that bothers me...Vogelbach is horribly uncoordinated and uncomfortable looking on a baseball diamond. To the point where he looks nearly as strange to me as a position player attempting to pitch. It's hard to make a big defensive impact at first base in any direction, but I think he actually would cost the team multiple wins if you put him out there.
