July 17, 201510 yr If he isn't going to hit with any power we should be selling tomorrow. I kind of wish they would go back on all star break forever. Painful to watch this constipated team... its like a car crash I can't turn away from. Edited July 22, 201510 yr by harkness
July 17, 201510 yr Author QUOTE (reiks12 @ Jul 17, 2015 -> 04:16 PM) He has nobody around him While that is true... I watch every game and this game alone he had a TON of good pitches to drive. He isn't scaring any pitchers right now they just come right at him... he is a horrible mistake hitter. The only pitch ive seen him dangerous on this year is a fast ball up outside corner that he can drive into right field. I guess it shows his potential that he can be missing so many pitches and hitting .292 Edited July 17, 201510 yr by harkness

July 22, 201510 yr Author Abreu is scaring me... I'm not sure who the real guy is. He has sucked hardcore as of late.

The real worry now is that the real guy appears to be a decently productive player who is extremely prone to nagging injuries, enough to regularly impact his production.
July 22, 201510 yr Abreu started swinging at pitches outside the strike zone. Bad idea. He hit a couple ball hard last night (Tuesday). He's probably wondering why he picked the White Sox.
July 22, 201510 yr The Cardinals broadcast said last night his hand/finger (can't remember which) is hurt.

July 22, 201510 yr QUOTE (LDF @ Jul 22, 2015 -> 08:20 AM) i really think he is still hurting. Maybe I'm in the dark but haven't seen anything about him being hurt. I just want him to start hitting the ball hard again. If it takes a DL stint, so be it.

If it takes a DL stint, so be it. He is hurt and couple that with the Sox inability to produce and a player like Jose puts pressure on himself to do more than he can do. He is swinging at pitches out of the zone a lot. But, that hand injury has kind of made him a singles hitter right now

If it takes a DL stint, so be it. Over the weekend he looked just physically terrible and that was after a full 5 day break. He looks half dead. Maybe he'll snap out of it while playing...I dunno.
July 22, 201510 yr There's no argument about whether or not he's injured. He is. RV confirmed this before the ASB. The argument should be whether or not he should go to the DL.

July 22, 201510 yr QUOTE (Soxfest @ Jul 22, 2015 -> 11:43 AM) Hurt 2 years in a row not good. And still manages to be a good offensive player. Can only imagine what he will look like if healthy

He is swinging at pitches out of the zone a lot. But, that hand injury has kind of made him a singles hitter right now and people need to remember if he is swinging with relatively 1 hand, he is still making contact and making singles. this reminds me of the movie 6, mickey mantle only had 1 arm and he did great, even hitting a homer. bottom line, you need 2 hands to swing hard..... now if jose is only using 1 hand.... shelve him.

July 22, 201510 yr QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jul 22, 2015 -> 06:43 PM) He's 2/20 since the AS break. many thanks for that... which reinforced my point of Jose has to be really injured.
