No, he was never a slap hitter, always hit 20 plus in full time action...but his K frequency is astronomically up and his BB rate astronomically down. From the few games I've been able to see, he's trying to pull more frequently this year...that could be a result of his surgery and fear as he can't get to second any more unless he doubles. IF he were playing a full season this year, he'd have 200 strikeouts and 50 walks.

Nice work,Lou.




You're killing him with his own gun.
