eh... while i love vinnie and want to see him do well, i'm not sure I would go so far as saying he's not getting the calls. In a sample size, i could agree. But overall how can there be something causing such a drastic change happening long term this season? Just doesn't make a whole lot of sense to me. Kind of the same argument people make about hard hit balls. "Well he's just been unlucky." You can say that in short term scenarios, but long-term output that is just NOT a valid reason. Luck comes and goes but this is something else.
