    My Bad...59...!

    I should of seen as much with the spray chart, obviously Brian IS making contact, and putting the ball in play. I looked at his career K totals, not bad. I would still like to see his Walks become more than His Strike Outs, tho', as much I would for any Yankee hitter....!

    Ol' Ted Williams advice to any player, and Donnie BB and Wade Boggs in a old SI. (Classic Story too)...

    As is said, as long as a player is making solid contact, he will sooner or later, come around, a get on base, drive in runs, and improve his B'Avg....!

    Thanks again for edifying...!!

    ...he's been VERY unlucky so far...has had more than his fair share of hard hit balls right at someone...and a lot of warning track fly balls.

    ...I'm really hoping some of the outs eventually turn into hits/HRs.

    No doubt, it is only a matter of time before Brian Breaks out....as long as he's hitting the ball hard....I will be patient.....regardless....! McCann WILL come around, no doubt...! I'm with ya' on this one, 59.

    Again, love the spray chart, perfect example of making contact...!

    His average certainly doesn't indicate his ability to hit the balls to all fields. They just seem to always be right at somebody. I think all its going to take is a few multi hit games for him to come around. Right now I think he's playing more toward his salary as opposed to his ability.
