He was bad in 1 season in Norfolk and downright awful in 1 season of Norfolk/Baltimore.
His Spring Training right now is giving him a huge advantage in the offensive category for the 25 man roster, but his regular season is key. Same with everyone else.
It will be interesting to see. In the minors, he was a "gap hitter" who showed flashes of power on both sides. With his speed, if they clean up his path and get him to hit more consistently, he could rack up a good amount of doubles.
Just throwing this out there from experience: Being stressed because the call you are going to/car you are stopping might be the reason you are dead or on national news being sued for doing your job vs. being boo'ed by people for not doing your job and being told "you're cut" from a team after making millions of dollars don't equal each other.
If he is feeling stressed due to not "living up" to his contract, mechanical changes and analytics can only do so much.
Has anyone seen any report of him seeing a sports psychologist? Maybe his struggle is mainly mental?
