And an ill-timed one, too.
If he was doing this in the middle of June, probably wouldn't get much notice. At the start of the season, everything is magnified.
I saw some things yesterday that MIGHT indicate he's focusing on driving the ball up the middle, gap-to-gap. That's typically when he's at his best.
Hopefully that was part of a conscious effort and a sign that he's close to getting his timing back.
Oh, and it would also help if he'd straighten out a few of those balls back to the screen, too. He's had a lot of good swings that he hasn't quite squared up. Those are potential gappers/bombs. Need to put them in play.
