I will say it again; it will never not astound me that Will Fucking Smith went an entire postseason without giving up a run
He’s been a complete non-factor in the power game since his hot start and his pitch selection has to be a big part of it. Five XBHs (all doubles) and six walks in the 121 PAs since his last HR.
Still too many Ks period; his approach was much better when he was red-hot earlier in the year. Feels like he’s constantly in an 0-2 count.
Also, it’s hard to understate how bad the outfield is. Not being able to count on Ronnie yet means we need to make a move and I don’t think it can wait for the all star break
1 fucking run, and that was in the 9th. Pathetic showing by the lineup once again, and another missed opportunity.
