Player / 2021 OPS / 2022 OPS

Grandal / .913 / .437 (-476)

Sheets / .830 / .601 (-229)

Moncada / .818 / .367 (-451)

Garcia / .717 / .463 (-254)

So, the four guys who bat left-handed/switch and have been on the team both years have all been far, far worse in 2022 than 2021. While I'm of the opinion that the players, coaches, training staff, front office, and opposing pitchers have all influenced this, I'd like to know what people think is the primary reason they've been so bad this year.

Also, for reference, stats for guys not on the team both years:

2021: Lamb .710, Goodwin .693, Collins .668, Eaton .642, Hernandez .598

2022: McGuire .523

    I mean it could be a mix for all of the above, this org hasnt proven anything beyond trading a generational superstar and signing top Cubans. You could easily make a case for all of these to be true. That being said the hitting approach this year is terrible, i have to put coaching as my #1.
