vs. BLUE JAYS, 9/27

[JohnBKistler]

Been in a slump sincethe Rays series.

Yes. That is what I meant. Not inferring that it just started tonight.

[weams]

One of the best defenders in the game.

Poor player.

Kim's last 15 games he's hit as bad as Chris Davis has hit all year.

He has the best at bats on this team. Has hardly played this month. Nothing against Pearce and Bourn but those two additions didn't mean Kim should sit more.

Tomorrow is must win IMO.

Davis' strike zone judgment has been awful the entire season. It seems like he has no idea whether a pitch is a ball or strike and has just been guessing when he's up there. I'm wondering if there's an issue with his eyesight and he needs to get contacts or something.

Im not saying one way or the other

But doesn't Davis have more walks than anyone else this year?

Pretty lousy time to go into a team-wide slump, that's for sure

This is not a slump. This goes back to late June. This is how the team was constructed. They don't walk, don't move runners, don't situational hit, don't run the bases well, but do sit back and wait for the home run. Won't go far like that.

Double his adderral dosage

If you watch Mr Robot, you would see that might not be the best idea.

I think a sports psychologist could help, I think the problem is all mental.

[Going Underground]

Poor player.

??? Are the Orioles going to send a link tomorrow to get tickets?

[LookitsPuck]

Poor player.

I'd take him over every OF on our roster save for Jones and maybe Kim.

Yes, because he watches every pitch that isn't in the dirt.

[JohnBKistler]

Good job Tommy. Pretty much now or never offense.

[Malike]

Poor player.

3.0 win player this year. Jones is 1.3, Kim 0.6, Trumbo 1.3. I guess our guys are pure garbage if he's a poor player.

I get what you are saying in terms of how this team was constructed, that being said overall they should be hitting better than this. Recent seasons they are pretty good with RISP, 2nd half has been awful.

[MDK02]

We have 6 hits tonight. The HR ball hasn't been there though. We're missing Schoop and Manny's power lately.

16.1% of the pitches he has faced have been called strikes. Average is 16.9%. He does swing at pitches outside of the zone a little more than average... 19.4% vs 16.9%.
