It’s a fact that he currently looks like he did for most of the month of September last year. A fact ? You know stats wise the only players with more hits are Anderson and vaugh ? And Collins leads everyone in home runs. He also has the most stolen bases. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exactly he’s literally stats wise having as good of a spring as anyone other than Collins who leads in hr. Strikeouts is pretty much the same across the board.

No one is saying he’s awful, but he does need to make some improvements from last year for this team to excel this season. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m just saying stats wise. A lot of our guys have looked terrible and have long stretches this spring or non competitive at bats. There just tends to be a lot of kenwo type opinions. I think if we’re concerned about that we mighty as well be concerned about way more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brijames1957 Posted March 26, 2021 Share Posted March 26, 2021 If Robert doesn't hit it will be a big problem especially now with Eloy gone. He has to be able to get on base one way or another . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baseball is such an interesting sport that way...for a month you won't be able to get a guy out and then for a month he won't be able to buy a hit. The great thing about this White Sox team is they have a roster of guys that can carry the team. One month it will be Robert, Anderson and Abreu and then it will be Vaughn, Moncada and Collins as long as we have three guys always hot and Madrigal, Grandal and Eaton just getting on base...we'll score a lot of runs...and with this pitching staff...we should win a lot of games. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
South Side Hit Men Posted March 26, 2021 Share Posted March 26, 2021 (edited) 1 hour ago, fathom said: It’s less about average and more that his at bats are of the same quality we saw for more than a month last year where he was arguably the worst hitter in the majors. This. Robert doesn’t need to get into shape physically beyond getting timing down like every hitter. He needs to get mentally prepared for each at bat, and the grind of a full season (2019 (122) the only season above 56 games played). I’ve seen a lot of wasted at bats this Spring, swinging at a lot of garbage pitches, poor at bats. He needs to be hungrier and more focused, take advantage of the limited ST at bats to start the season right.

Thinking about this got me curious and I just looked at Frank Thomas's career split OPS by month... Apr: .917 May: .998 June: 1.016 July .978 August: .965 Sept: .965 Oh Frank how we miss you.

Look at Ray Ray Run Posted March 26, 2021 Share Posted March 26, 2021 The goal of spring training for a position player with a lineup spot locked in is to leave spring healthy; literally nothing else matters. "Locking in" for spring training at bats is completely worthless. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brijames1957 Posted March 26, 2021 Share Posted March 26, 2021 I agree that Robert needs more discipline and concentration at the plate. I think he fell in love with hitting the long HR's and the attention that creates but what he really needs to do is just concentrate on getting on base every at bat. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
