common sense for anyone who watches the game
Other small things hitters can do that can change things up
-move closer to the plate
-move closer to the pitcher
-choke up on the bat
-remove leg kick

Just like how last year our record for the first half didn't show our true talent, I think the underlying #'s and scouting show this team has been terrible and deserve a far worse record.
