Maybe they can wear special glasses that highlight the ball.

Orbit is banging Kate Upton as we speak. Verlander will rage a no no in game 6. After that, flip a coin.

They need to go back to the drawing board studying video of the Yankee pitchers and get some good coaching on how to hit those pitches.

But I don't think that they have time to get better now. That kind of study, practice and improvement takes some time.

I'm shocked at how awful they look at the plate. Do you realize how badly they have hit in these five games? One of their big bats was 0-16 when I stopped watching tonight. He might be even worse now.

Calling all OT slumpbusters here is your chance to take one for the team.

Step 1: watch how the Yankees do it

Step 2: take notes

Step 3: try again next October

Someone needs to post RMJ during the game
It only works 7th inning or later, while Astros are batting & should only be posted once an inning

ETA
This is only a suggestion
I am not responsible for anyone getting banned

It's obvious the Yankees have that bat made from the tree that got struck by lightning.

They could try stealing it but the Yankees surely have it under lock and key...

Tell them that if they don't start hitting, the Texans are bringing back Osweiler.

its all fundamentals. need to get a better stance like this^

focus on center of gravity, lower hips for smaller strike zone

A strike zone that is called fairly for both sides would be a great start. This has a lot to do with why the stros are so all over the place at the plate. Hard to know what will and won't be called up there.

Jesus is one of a only a handful of people that can hit the curvenall AND make the bat used to hit said curveball. Check the good part of Luke, it's in there.

They should do like the Red Sox and have a couple shots before the game to loosen up. They are way too tight and keep pressing more and more each game. The leaders also need to get up and show some emotion instead of looking scared.

Also I wouldn't mind seeing Beltran on the bench and Reddick moved down in the order.

Need this bat boy, he knows how to pick out a winner


And I agree with post above, NO Beltran in the line up. Are we sure they didn't bury his bat with his glove?
