Pablo Sandoval's Weight-Loss Efforts Reportedly Paying Off

by Jeff FletcherFiled under: Giants So far one of the most closely watched weight-loss programs in the majors is going as planned. At least, that's the story from two people who have seen the Giants' Pablo Sandoval over the winter. Sandoval, whose disappointing season was punctuated with the Giants suggesting that if he didn't lose weight and rediscover his stroke that he may be in the minors, has told former teammate Rich Aurilia that he's already lost 17 pounds, according to the San Francisco Chronicle. Giants minor league instructor Jose Alguacil, who does baseball work with Sandoval in Arizona, also said the 24-year-old has made progress. Aurilia, who lives in the Phoenix area, said he ran into Sandoval in a mall and he was impressed with how Sandoval looked and how he talked. Permalink | Email this | Linking Blogs | Comments
