He’s slumping, that’s all. He’s also young and needs to play every day, which he should be doing. Even as bad as he’s been lately, he’s working the count, occasionally getting on via the bb. He’ll hit, if he plays. He could be really tired though... He’s been playing everyday in the minors and now is expected to keep playing when he has no energy. That’s why he’s playing poorly, working counts, and taking walks because he’s saving energy by not swinging the bat. Good one. Although, I would argue C the most games in baseball and then when not C playing 1B, should wear on a player to the point of said player getting a heavy bat, you know, 19 homers first 2 1/2 months, 3 since, type of heavy bat. But, no fear, Freitas is here.
