Mike Napoli's second-half fade at the plate carried into the off-season, but the result wasn't a lengthy winter-ball slump. The Angels catcher shed 15 pounds after a diet of pre-packaged meals, a loss he believes could lead to more consistent production in 2007.

Nice to see Naps trim some of the weight off and add muscle for the 2007 season, but I see him splitting time with Jeff Mathis this season if he struggles to maintain a +.250 average. Scioscia likes Mathis, from what I can see.
