You should look at his launch angle. It's orders of magnitude more severe than pretty much any hitter in baseball right now.
He's launching everything straight skyward. His swing is just all sorts of ****ed up and he spends every AB behind in the count. Because according to Dan, "Carpenter loves hitting with 2-strikes"....
We know Dan, you tell us this 3 times/gm and usually right before he strikes out again.
This whole team's a ****ing trainwreck and we lack the coaching chops anywhere on the staff to fix them. When you have to ship Grichuk to A ball to find someone that might resonate with him (and invariably our players perform their best straight out of the minors, before this player development staff can get their hands on them), perhaps it's time to change the mix in the dugout a bit, wouldn't you say?
But it won't happen because DeWitt is gutless and rich.
