    Per BimaThug on Twitter: In 11 July games heading into tonight, Reed is slashing .261/.370/.522. That's a team-leading OPS of .892 in July.

    George grounds into too many DPs. That was number 8, tying the two previous years combined.

    Well, they're swinging at hittable pitches from a pitcher who is throwing quite a few strikes. The alternative is to get behind 0-2 or 1-2.

    Now, perhaps they can get better at fouling off or spoiling pitches that are just not what they want... that's advanced-user-level stuff right there. Professional hitter stuff.

    Hot shot up the middle. Shift got him.

    As his strikeouts go down, he's probably going to GIDP more... seems intuitive.
