Does he known how to hit? We don't need pitching at the moment. We need hitters that know how to lay off non-strikes
Yup, Didi too. Almost like they’re sitting on a curve, and can’t adjust to catch up to the fastball. Which would be an odd approach against Verlander
But, the pitches they are striking out on are ridiculous. They are not even remotely close.
And Castro, and Ellsbury, and Didi
And how did the Astros go from big SO team for years to suddenly one that leads the league in making contact? How can we get some of that?
Oh and fuck the umps
