harkness99 Posted July 17, 2015 Share Posted July 17, 2015 (edited) If he isn't going to hit with any power we should be selling tomorrow. I kind of wish they would go back on all star break forever. Painful to watch this constipated team... its like a car crash I can't turn away from. Edited July 22, 2015 by harkness Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I watch every game and this game alone he had a TON of good pitches to drive. He isn't scaring any pitchers right now they just come right at him... he is a horrible mistake hitter. The only pitch ive seen him dangerous on this year is a fast ball up outside corner that he can drive into right field. I guess it shows his potential that he can be missing so many pitches and hitting .292 Edited July 17, 2015 by harkness Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jose Abreu Posted July 17, 2015 Share Posted July 17, 2015 He's clearly playing hurt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The real worry now is that the real guy appears to be a decently productive player who is extremely prone to nagging injuries, enough to regularly impact his production.

oldsox Posted July 22, 2015 Share Posted July 22, 2015 Abreu started swinging at pitches outside the strike zone. Bad idea. He hit a couple ball hard last night (Tuesday). He's probably wondering why he picked the White Sox. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He came up in the 7th and 9th as the tying run with runners on 2nd and 3rd and failed both times. Not even a sac fly in the 7th. 2 groundouts.

He is hurt and couple that with the Sox inability to produce and a player like Jose puts pressure on himself to do more than he can do. He is swinging at pitches out of the zone a lot. But, that hand injury has kind of made him a singles hitter right now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe he'll snap out of it while playing...I dunno. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jose Abreu Posted July 22, 2015 Share Posted July 22, 2015 There's no argument about whether or not he's injured. He is. RV confirmed this before the ASB. The argument should be whether or not he should go to the DL. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is swinging at pitches out of the zone a lot. But, that hand injury has kind of made him a singles hitter right now and people need to remember if he is swinging with relatively 1 hand, he is still making contact and making singles. this reminds me of the movie 6, mickey mantle only had 1 arm and he did great, even hitting a homer. bottom line, you need 2 hands to swing hard..... now if jose is only using 1 hand.... shelve him.
