    ...experimenting with something I talked about a couple of months ago;

    ...batting RHed vs RHed pitching.

    Interesting and good to hear.....shade of Matsui or Suzuki, who hit LH or RH pitchers quit equally.....

    Isn't that what we were taught in Little League? (I know MLB is a far cry from the fundamentals of LL), yet the truth remains, albeit a RH or LH Pitcher, hit the piss out of the ball, and hit it where its pitched, as well as learn to place hit...

    Just my 2 cents, I'm off my podium....Thanks 59...

    Yanks should be prepared next season and have a player who can hit play a competent 1b.
    It could be time (next season) to start thinking about a semi platoon with Tex and the heck with his contract.

    Did he really say he had to get stronger? They don't have a weight room at the stadium?
