It looks like he's swatting flies up there with his bat. Why even swing at it if you're not gonna hit it hard?

Looks to me like he's selling out completely to make contact. That's why his K rate is so low but he's not hitting for any power

Would much rather see the strikeouts increase if it means more power

Luis Luis Luis you don't want to hit outside pitches son ! Take a freaking walk once in a while. Make the pitchers respect you.

If I was a pitcher I wouldn't even put a pitch in the strike zone until there were 2 balls on the count.

I'd understand that swing with 2 strikes, but that was an 0-1 count. His approach just sucks.

It definitely seems like the pendulum has swung way too far towards making contact. Maybe it's a health thing because his quality of contact metrics were outrageously good early in the season

Look at his first swing and his feet.  He had absolutely no base on that swing.  Looked like a bad hitting pitcher.
