What's missing is his power. He may be the worst looking hitter I have ever seen, but he has always been that way and he has had some damn good stretches in the past. They can only hope that he has another one of those stretches now. He did it at the end of last year. Expand Wasn’t it this weekend someone commented about hitters working on one thing that might adversely affect another part of their game? I don’t know if that’s the case here, but it’s interesting to think of. Quote

There were 2 out on only 7 pitches, and he swings at the first one which was not middle middle, instead of making Lyles throw a few more. If we had done that as teenagers we'd have gotten yelled at. Expand Agreed but maybe the 3 strikeouts last night might have caused him to be more aggressive? Quote

Expand Imo Badoo wont be on this team next season, he cant hit...but if he is somehow still here, he'll be a bench player at most. Edited July 18, 2023 by Dtrain72 Quote
Tigermojo Posted July 18, 2023 Posted July 18, 2023 Make the all star look silly on Saturday and make Lyles look like an all star tonight. Quote

AZTigersfan Posted July 18, 2023 Posted July 18, 2023 Wow some really, really bad ABs through 4 against Lyles. Ugh Quote
Dtrain72 Posted July 18, 2023 Posted July 18, 2023 (edited) Remember that time the allegede worst team in baseball in the A's took 2 of 3 against the Tigers? The other allegede worst team in baseball in the Royals say "hold our beer, we're gettin 3 of 4..." Basically, if Carpenter isnt hitting bombs, this offense is ass and cant score.

Adullin Posted July 18, 2023 Posted July 18, 2023 its hard to hit when you chase 40% of the balls that are off the plate. Quote

Expand yeah - Spencer is swinging out of the zone, which is the one thing he's been pretty good about - so not good to see. Quote
