Heyward has an easy hit for every at bat...Just bunt past the pitcher to left field...big hole in left field...

work with hitting coach...have the opponents remove the defensive shift...

I know how to solve Jorge Soler's unlucky BABIP. Just hit a home run every time. Then he doesn't have to worry about the fielders.

I'm glad you didn't suggest this to Rizzo while he was batting like .150 but had a .900 OPS.

I'm all for a guy who has little power trying to bunt for a hit. Especially if Fowler is on base ahead of him. this isn't a Rizzo or Ortiz type player, Heywards value comes from getting on base not hitting for power. I do think bunting is harder than it looks, but if he can do it he should it.

That sounds like a good plan.

 

 

How do you think the Cubs should go about fixing Lester's inability to throw to first base?

 

Have him pitch from first bash duh.

toonster uses them often, especially in the minor league and college threads

Fact of the day (sponsored by arbitrary end points by UMFan): Heyward has a .398 OBP since April 20th (19 games played).

 

Full slash line: .284/.398/.324/.722

 

He's hitting and getting on base, he's just not hitting for power, which makes sense with the wrist injury.
