From what I've seen the only thing they teach players in Cuba is how to swing from the heels on every pitch regardless of speed or location.

GoodAsGould Posted June 24, 2010 Share Posted June 24, 2010 This has been just an extremely ugly game for Beckham..... I wanted to let him get through it but they have to definitely consider sending him down now.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everything is flailing every possible direction. Definitely. Every at bat is very awkward and mechanical looking. He has a Fukudome-like bailing movement with his front foot that gives him no chance at all to do anything productive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Ginger Kid Posted June 24, 2010 Share Posted June 24, 2010 I cut him some slack - he's young, he's changed positions twice, he had a great rookie season and now he's taking his lumps. He'll come out of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know its easy to say now, but I never understood why everyone labeled him as a sure thing, cant miss superstar right from the beginning. I guess it was because we really haven't had any elite prospects since the early 90's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
