I think a big part of him struggling post ASB was he was mentally out of it. If you're not on mentally you can't possibly succeed if you are a guess hitter.

That’s not negative Nancy, that’s baseball 101.If he was a fraction of a second later - we’d all be phrasing him. Kid went up there looking in a zone and for a pitch. He has zero two strike approach. Hopefully he’ll grow into becoming a true hitter instead of someone who sells out to maximize a tool.Until then, we’ll have to deal with him being Adam Dunn with some defense.

That could be a straight take or a straight swing, or he just guesses the pitch and runs with it. It really shows sometimes…..like when he takes one right down the pipe with the bases loaded for strike 3sounds like some Luis Robert strategy right there

2 hours ago2 hr 3 minutes ago, PaleAleSox said:Okay the tigers lost but I forgot what team this week is the threat to win the division.Definitely Guardians. That pitching is so good.
