Yet he continued to mash the league other than his slump to end the season, it got to the point that it was a meme that he was just gas lighting opposing pitchers into throwing him high heat, that he could handle. Also isn't also kind of a benefit to know where your holes are at the plate, where as someone like Vlad you just have no idea what in the f*** is wrong with him from ab to ab.
