Sorry folks, had a very busy morning! Church, shopping, had my hair cut at the salon, then I went to Popeyes! :P

God would have understood the Red Sox game was on this afternoon. Could have played hooky from church. :)

Here are Nava's numbers from June: .313 .405 .359 .765

Here are Nava's numbers from July: .355 .429 .387 .816

 

Glad to see the early slump was just a fluke.

Bradley has really started to turn his career around. The hits keep falling.

 

It's not without cause. He changed his stance on 6/19 back to his comfortable stance he had his entire career. When he was getting beat inside on fastballs, he squared up to try to catch up to the inside fastball but left him very vulnerable to the outside pitch. So, in G1 of the Oakland series @OAK, he changed back.

 

The results have been strong. Since then he's hit .300/.347/.357. The power hasn't come around, but that'll come as he continues to make solid contact. The biggest thing is that his K% has fallen to 14.7% during that span. Prior to the change, his K% was 30.9%, so he's more than cut it in half.

I believe it when he does it for a long stretch. He always has had little hot streaks, then his bat dies all of a sudden.

So, are we agreed that the first instance of BTR Mojo in a long time has been a positive experience?

 

I think the first instance of games without AJP has been the positive experience.

Can't worry about it. Just put your head down and win games. Next 13 games are against AL East teams, though.

 

That's true. They should just take one game at a time. But, you can't help to look at this up and coming schedule and think that they can. If they sweep the Royals and the Jays, they are close to a playoff spot at the deadline.

Baltimore is also on a long west coast trip right now. We can make up some serious ground in the coming weeks.
