We have a collection of pretty crappy offensive players for the most part in the lineup. With the guys who actually have some semblance of talent (Lee, Ramirez, Byrd, Colvin) he's done a reasonably good job. All four of those guys have looked the part at the plate even if the results aren't coming yet for some. Nady has been good thus far too. Can't blame Rudy for all the ABs we're giving to guys like Theriot, Fontenot and Koyie Hill (and even the first two of those got their hits tonight). That was mostly TIC, this is the 3rd hitting coatch in 3 years right? I do like the fact they're forcing pitchers to throw a lot of pitches, and have faith the offense will be pretty good. It's like Michigan's football team hiring a new defensive coordinator every year. Let the guy work his mojo and not put the blame on him after 1 year
