		<description><![CDATA[In the 2010 PS, Pablo got 3 hits in 17 PA.

During the season, his baseball skills (couldn&#039;t hit, field, throw, or run) had deteriorated to the point that Bochy finally benched him almost the entire month of September. Pablo &#039;helped&#039; the Giants get there and win it all by blowing bubbles on the bench as Uribe moved from SS to 3B. 

Professional athletes can really only control their physical and mental preparation. Pablo&#039;s body is the tool he is being payed to use, and he can&#039;t / won&#039;t maintain it in working condition.

Pablo and the author might refuse to see a difference between overweight and too fat to perform. 

Sox fans see it all to clearly.]]></description>
