fathom Posted June 29, 2012 Share Posted June 29, 2012 QUOTE (Baron @ Jun 29, 2012 -> 12:53 AM) Viciedo has been very meh lately. I'd really like to see them give Danks some of his ABs against righties until he shows signs of snapping out of this terrible June slump Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RZZZA Posted June 29, 2012 Share Posted June 29, 2012 If our offense could ever stop being a streaky, inconsistent POS...we'd win a lot more ball games. This game was right there for the taking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beckham with no hits in 3 games after the lineup change was very predictable, despite Youkilis being the right choice to hit 2nd. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not going to make excuses for Gordon. Guy needs to learn consistency. Every time he gets a little hot people think "he's arrived." I believe it will come, eventually, but like the yankee announcers said, he only played like 50 games in the minors and has had to learn how to play in the bigs. Not easy to do.

When you have so many others struggling, I disagree. If this way a month ago when half the team was on fire, then by all means, let him hit out of it. I'm not suggesting a platoon, but maybe 2 starts a week for Danks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep - he's such a headcase, and our staff should know that. He's been feeling for the ball all week, taking that weak, sweeping swing that he takes when he sucks a lot.

The good Gordon goes the other way and does so frequently Not the way he's currently swinging, where he's not getting his arms extended and guiding the ball to right. He's barely hit any balls to left field of late. When he went on the tear a month ago, he was driving the ball to left. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He only needs to pull when the count/pitch favors it, which is what he was doing when he got hot. Right now his pitch recognition is for s***, which is why his swings don't look good Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
