The wonderful Tony Lastoria has been putting up his "winter haven diaries" over at theclevelandfan.com, and in addition to mentioning that Weglarz was finally in camp with Olympic baseball qualifying over -- USA gets an automatic berth, in case anybody was wondering, and Canada finished first in the qualifying -- he posted this wonderful video of a near brawl between the Japanese Taiwanese and Canadian Olympic qualifying teams:

Weglarz is #33, and you can glimpse him a couple times right there in the middle of the fracas. Watching this, I can't believe how big he is already. The kid just turned 20, and in the few highlights I saw of him last year he still looked like a teenager, but in this video he's practically Thome-sized. He's going to be a freaking monster.
Oh, and I didn't even mention that he led all hitters in HR (3) and SLG (.950(!)) in the qualifying.
