With the offensive fire power we have would it be too much to ask for a blowout every 9 games or so? Why must we go through these long stretches looking so bad against mediocre pitching?

 

 

It is ridiculous I admit

It's just so fun to watch him bat.

What's not to love? Line drive hitter, see's a lot of pitches, great plate discipline for someone his age, doesn't strike out a ton, works the count, goes with the pitch, had good/improving power, good speed...

And you can totally see he's learning from his mistakes at the plate and doesn't make it the next time up.

Home run or nothing from PK, Dye, and Thome these days.

 

That inning was a microcosm of what this team needs to become versus what it is -- a guy who hits the ball where it's pitched, doesn't try to roll over every pitch versus 2 guys whose default is to try and pull the ball, at almost all times.

More of the former, less of the latter, please.
