Josh Hamilton's back spasms

[LAAFANofLA]

Even though Albert's playing on one foot and is not hitting like Albert, at least he's out there every day.

 

That's not necessarily a good thing.

[Jimmag]

As long as his nose is not twitching we're good.

[Erick McClendon]

Josh is sensitive. You guys should give him a break...

[Willy J.]

Exactly; cut Josh some slack!

 

I hear those yeast infections can be tricky.

[Michifan]

It's too bad that he can't get a spasm at just the right time to hit the baseball. That would be convenient.

[Waybackman]

Josh Hamilton is a bottomless well of "issues".

$125 million for a platoon player. Awesome

RISP

.108avg/.373ops

 

Men on

.163/.518

 

high leverage

.208/.518

 

in the 8th and 9th innings

5/39 .128

 

vs. any Relief pitcher

9/72 .125

 

His 'blue eyes' thing is bullshit.  He's actually doing better during the day. 

 

The biggest thing about his inability to hit lefties this year is that he is completely worthless after the 6th inning even more so than early in the game.

Josh Hamilton makes as much money waving at two pitches as the median American family makes in a year.

Any other player with these kind of numbers would be DFA'd pronto.

Seem to fair up when the team is facing a lefty starter. 

 

It's getting more and more difficult to maintain some semblance of faith that he's gonna suddenly get better. 

I would imagine he'll improve when he's healthy; probly been playing with pain for a while.

June 1 update:

52 PA w/ RISP

0 extra base hits

I guess his back spasms only flair up when a guy is standing on 2nd and/or 3rd.

$25,000,000 sure doesn't buy what it used to.

Some days, Josh Hamilton just doesn't want to play.

 

Get used to it.
