BRC, you have no idea how difficult it is for me to take the good with the bad with this guy. His bad is just SOOOOOO bad. I'm trying to overlook it because of the nights like last night but wow is it ugly.
That was as ugly as bat as you will ever see. Luckily those type of AB's when he started the season was at least once a game. Now its only a couple of times a week.

You and I both will take those gawd awful AB's as long as he keeps mashing the ball. He can change a game with one AB and if he gets hot, can carry the offense in a playoff series. Thats a helluva upside to a team with challenges scoring runs.
