Bregman has crappy hitting ability. He is just really good at recognizing pitches. Too bad he can't hit them anymore.
My Dad, God rest his soul, would have said to Pena, "Get that bat off your shoulder." I can't help wondering why he hasn't been taught a better batting stance. Maybe it's as simple as that. Maybe not.
4 stranded in the first 2 innings. Bases loaded with no outs, 1 run. Then leadoff double followed by 3 choke at bats. things just not improving.
Where can I make a bet that I pay $5 whenever an Astros leadoff double results in a run, and they pay me $5 whenever the player is stranded?
Bregman simply hasn't been good enough for this team this year. He's been a good on base guy with a sporadic glove at times this year and streaky. Not good enough.
The sky is falling. This team needs too much help at this point. Dana Brown get off your ****ing ass.
