This is not true. Is he good at hitting off speed pitches? No. Is he he way better than last year? Yes.
The pitch he still struggles with from left handers is sharp curve breaking on inside of the plate down in the zone. Exactly the pitch he stuck out on in the 9th but a lot of college hitters struggle at hitting that pitch.

You could tell that at the time, because it wasn't your typical Bear HR. It was a long pop fly that he had the strength to push over the wall, instead of a liner that screamed over.
I do think he needs an offseason of BP with a guy with a good curveball. If he can learn to hit that consistently, he will be insane.

He hit a homer on a low slider.
