Yes reddick is struggling. Bat him 8th or 9th and let him work out of it. He’ll be back at some point. Doubt he slumps like this for 7 more weeks.
Get Alvarez some knee pads. Already twice has he fouled a ball on the wrong spot. Was he doing this in the minors ?
I understand that. But nothing has changed in the last seven weeks so what makes you think he will improve the next seven weeks? Have you seen anything in his at bats or approach that gives you confidence?
Because obviously hes not a .588 OPS guy over his long career. Clearly, he is WAY underperforming for nearly 2 months. It’s called a slump for other players why is it permanent for Reddick?
What have you seen in his approach that gives you confidence? Tell you what....if he has an OPS of .750 or higher (roughly his career average) between now and the end of the season, I'll donate an additional $50 to the site. If not, you become a contributing member. Minimum of 100 plate appearances.
Reddick is what he is, decent defender, below average hitter. If Tucker wasn’t untouchable and still tucked away at AAA, I wouldn’t worry too much about Reddick, as is though I’m ready to see Kyle here
No..never said that. I just don't think he will reach his career average over the rest of this season. So..you gonna agree to the bet or do you think he is done as a major league hitter?
