Dmitri Young Redux (but certainly not a reduction ... in weight)

Remember the greatest play we saw on the Ballpark Tour? The one where Dmitri Young forgot to cover first base on a dropped third strike and Xavier Nady beat him to the bag? Well, this pic -- from the WaPo this morning, via the D.C. Sports Bog -- perhaps illustrates why Dmitri has such a hard time getting going.

Still, can you imagine the force he creates once he does get going? Wow. That's inertia.

This shot is from The Post's John McDonnell, taken during Saturday's loss to the Rangers.
