Actually, that isn't fair to Hernandez, he has hit the ball pretty hard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think if put in the right matchups and as a backup he could be fine. Having catchers with certain pitchers is killing the limited offense of both he and Seby. Collins was a bat first guy when drafted but this year has been brutal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

almagest Posted August 19, 2021 Share Posted August 19, 2021 The A's are looking for walks. Some of these takes with 2 strikes are clearly not looking to swing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s because they’re looking for fastballs and they’re not even close most of the time. When they’ve gone offspeed pitch on 3-2 this series, they’ve had a ton of success.

RibbieRubarb Posted August 19, 2021 Share Posted August 19, 2021 It seems the book on the White Sox pitchers for this series has been be aggressive early on them and then be patient as the Sox will nibble outside the zone after two strikes.
