Actually he and Lee are both listed above 250 on the Astros current roster. I looked after I guessed, mostly because I couldn't believe Lee wasn't a correct answer.

All pitchers within the last 10 years.

Juden pitched for HOU in '90 and '93 and finally for NYY in '99. Whatever happened to the asshole?

Oops, yeah, Juden pitched for the Astros more than 10 years ago. Don't know what became of him, but that was one big motherfucker.

Wow, they have Fulchino listed at 275! I was going by weights listed on Baseball-Reference.

B-R is the official listing?

I didn't give you anything. WD wasn't using MLB, he was using B-R.

Clearly, we need a ruling. B-R is a known pack of lies. Can't be trusted.

There is no "official" listing, it's just what I use more often than not (retrosheet as well). If anyone can show me legitimate proof that they have an alternate anwser I'll award Ding!s.

Both of you can add a Ding! to your talley.

HH is sneaking up on me. I need all the help I can get.

Col. Sphinx Drummond · « **Reply #47 on:** May 03, 2009, 11:34:35 am »

I think BR uses the rookie weights. Why else would they have this guy at 180?

JaneDoe · « **Reply #48 on:** May 03, 2009, 11:35:31 am »

I thought the reference to JimR seeing him this year was to Paulino in RR. Forgot about Paronto.

Interesting: The RR roster lists Fulchino as 252 lbs while the Astros website has him at 275 lbs. Big difference.

It's not the last time I'll stand corrected, i guarantee you. It happens, just bring it to my attention. I really do try very hard to be acurate and research all my questions as best I can. Sometimes I slip, but not often. I have to go way out there to challange this bunch.

Ron Brand · « **Reply #50 on:** May 03, 2009, 11:38:43 am »

You do a great job coming up with questions that are difficult but not impossible. I've read many, many baseball trivia books and I love Sunday Morning Trivia.

Well, most of the big league games are televised*, and they say the camera adds 20 pounds.

* no thanks to Fox, who after the rain delay stuck with the Phils-Mets yesterday in most markets that were supposed to get the Astros.
