Kalapse Posted February 23, 2007 Author Share Posted February 23, 2007 Well, Aardsma is 6'4". It's not like he's standing next to Mackowiak or something but yeah he looks a lot closer to 5'9". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kalapse Posted February 23, 2007 Author Share Posted February 23, 2007 A few minutes worth of work and I get a real height for Gio. Somewhere between 5'8" and 5'9" but closer to 5'9". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Somewhere between 5'8" and 5'9" but closer to 5'9". I'd believe 5'9-5'10, but not because of the picture. -Aardsma is striding off the ground -Gonzalez is bent slightly -Gonzalez is probably a foot, foot and a half behind Aarsdma. They can't be judged on an equal plane. Even with this, you're fairly close to the true height. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he's popping his fastball consistently at 91-93 and still has that nasty hook that I saw in his scouting video, I don't care if he's 5'1.
