This seems totally off

Here’s something on yahoo.com that had me scratching my head and dusting the dandruff off my keyboard:

I just don’t see how losing some pounds can pay for a baseball player. It might pay off for a minor league player. And how does someone make the Major League after 12 years of baseball? Did he start playing when he was 20?  Oh, right. That’s wrong. He spent 12 years in minor league baseball. That’s something completely different.
