Has Tommy White’s surgery hindered him more than we anticipated?

Just doesn’t seem to have the same “pop” as before. Maybe his shoulder is bothering him.

He hit a foul ball 113 mph in the game today.

He’s just still getting his timing down.

Curious why his two strike stance changed this year. Seems to have worked pretty well last year for it to have gone away. Radio announcers have been questioning lately as well.

I’ve muttered “Jesus Christ” almost every at bat. He’s angry. When it clicks for him. Jesus Christ

It seems like everyone else on the team is more patient at the plate and gets the pitchers deep in the count. Tommy stands out with first and second pitch swings at anything within range, often resulting in ground outs or pop ups. It’s like he feels he can hit any pitch out of the park if he can touch it, so swing!

It may take some time. I don't think he swung a bat this fall. He had some loud outs the last 2 days. Maybe he's getting close.

Nahh he's still pissing all over balls just not always hitting em where they aint.

I pray to God teams follow NDSU's lead and keep shifting him. What a joke.. have you seen his freshman or sophomore tape???

Talk ab pulling in superman's cape. Please... let's give Tanks even more of a reason to go up the middle and the other way

Do you how many people would love to be so called struggling while batting over .300?

I think he’s pressing a little bit. It’s a contract year for him and with the lack of ABs in the fall, it’s added up to a bit of a slow start. I also think the pitchers are pitching a bit different to him. He seems to be getting beat on inside pitches more often. I think the scouting report is to bust him inside and he hasn’t adjusted yet. He’ll eventually figure it out.

Is it just me or is his at bat stance getting comically low?

He will heat up when it matters down the stretch. Expect more game winners by the Tanks

I think the time missed from surgery has hindered him. Which is understandable.

He basically didn't play baseball from July to January.
