"Abreu heats up in the summer"

To my untrained eye Jose has a bad approach at the plate this season. I do realize he's close to the lead league in RBIs. I know it's cliche and probably wrong but he seems 'off' at the plate. He takes a lot of cookies and has a lot of bad at bats. I'm hoping he starts to relax and fricking pound the ball.

Yeah, I think the RBIs are an aberration, as weird as that sounds to say. His approach is just bad, all over. Maybe because 44% of the starting lineup is out, and he thinks it is all on him to single handledly win every game, I don't know...

I'm not a big fan of Goodwin. Is there reason I should change my mind about him?

No.  Like Mendick and Garcia (and others), he’s a backup player being exposed playing everyday.

Abreu‘s triple slash is 

240 .316

.434

 

last 15 games it‘s been 

200 .238

.333 

 

he has been absolutely brutal. The trying to do too much excuse is getting old.

This whole “approach” thing by the Mariners is a fascinating strategy the Sox should try 

They are 100 percent pressing which isn’t a good combo with six or so minor leaguers in the lineup
