Yeah, he was doing so well early on too. Hopefully he can get it straightened out. His OBP is still pretty high. The thing he was doing best early in the season though was making the pitcher throw him a ton of pitches. It helped all the guys behind him see everything the pitcher had.

I wonder what changed about his approach.


I feel like this is a common misconception. Sciambra literally had 1-2 good games which just so happened to be the 1st 2 games of the season and everyone thought he was a superstar. After that his batting dropped off tremendously and he never got it back.

Guess I'm not seeing a big trade off in Stevenson for Sciambra - in more than twice as many at-bats, sciambra has a better avg and higher obp, and seems to usually make the pitcher really work. Stevenson looks really fast in center, but it also seems like its because he's running all over the place to find the ball.

Good to have options though!
