I LOVE THE WAY HE BATS, HE DOESNT LOOK OVERMATCHED AT ALL, HE LOOKS LIKE HE IS COMMANDING THE PITCHER TO THROW HIM A HITTABLE PITCH. ALMOST BELLHORN-LIKE, BUT BETTER... Bellhorn-like hitter? There's no need to insult Matt. He can actually make non-foul ball contact regularly and he's not a whiff machine. And he's not looking to pull the ball - which I thought was against Cub law. He's looking to wait back as long as possible, see the pitch as much as possible, and then hit it on the screws to center or take it to right. He's great to watch to hit, tho I didn't see it last night (friggin power outage with every friggin storm in this friggin town). huh, i didnt know i was insulting him... I really wish Baker would allow him to bat against righties, though. telling the kid "your a platoon player, you hit against lefties" is just wishie washie. we are trying to get to the playoffs, let someone win the pos for crying out loud. it isnt fair for Holla or Murton
