[QUOTE="DecaturJacket, post: 1163177, member: 7369"] I don't think anybody has used the word slump. Slow start is what most have said I think. That's partially due to expectations, but also due to a bunch of "empty" hits. He's got 3 XBH, but tied for the least RBI in the lineup. Whenever he's come up in a "spot" he's come up empty. Agree that he has always had a violent swing, BUT even last year you can see when his swing gets a little wonky. It's a lot easier to lose your mechanics when you start out wonky like he does. I don't think he's swinging on his normal plane when he goes through these stretches. Also, if you watched the ANF episode last night he talked about his struggles with his hands being too quick. I think that's part of it right now too. His hands are out in front and he's having to adjust and isn't hitting anything square. Like I said before, I just don't think he's got his timing down yet. Not at all worried about it though. [/QUOTE]
