Get Tanks in spot opp can’t pitch around


No one is pitching around him. He’s swinging and missing at a much higher rate this season and is just not seeing it well right now. He’s too good of a hitter overall not to figure it out. But I haven’t seen anyone pitch him with extreme caution this season.

Tommy started last season slow (by his standards) as well. Needs a porker from a Tigerland bar, that's all...

This is accurate, but I don't know that he is going to figure it out. It seems that he can't get around on the inside stuff. Maybe his shoulder injury has something to do with that. I think he needs to get very disciplined about taking that inside stuff and drawing walks or HBP. But that means we need someone behind him to punish them.

My disclaimer: I've probably only seen 25% of his ABs this season, so I'm drawing conclusions on scanty evidence.
