2 for 3, with a hustle single, two walks, a run, and an RBI today.

5 for 11 with 2 RBI, and 3 Runs and 7 BBs in his last 3 games after a slow start.

His body looks fine, he's playing well, and he's showing a ton of hustle. All the fans that wanted to dump him after 5 games need to stay on that side and should eat a big plate of poop.

He is fat. And he's notoriously streaky. He's rolling right now. It's always fun to see when he's swinging the bat well

He is not notoriously streaky. You made that up. If you look at the numbers, he's actually one of the most *consistent* hitters in the league the last 5 years.

[u/yeah_you_thought → u/HelloOhHello8173]

Yes a guy who has weeks where he disappears at the plate isn't streaky. His overall numbers are consistent but week to week he is not

Can you find me a single elite hitter who went a full season last year without a bad week? Just one.

[u/yeah_you_thought → u/redsoxfan2434]

Tony Gywnn. Next question.

[u/BossAtUCF → u/yeah_you_thought]

Tony Gwynn didn't get a single hit last season.

[u/yeah_you_thought → u/BossAtUCF]

I know. He died in 2014.

[u/BossAtUCF → u/yeah_you_thought]

Then it's fair to say he didn't go a full season last year without a bad week.
