But I believe one of the things India needs to understand is he's not a slugger. I feel part of his decline this season is he's trying to hard to be the hero instead of just hitting.
I could be wrong, lol
Bell moving him around the lineup did him no favors. India is not a power bat, he belongs either at 1-2 or 7 in the order in my opinion. He’s more of a spark starter than an RBI guy. Moving him into spots where HR and multibase hits are expected probably changed his approach some, and not for the better.
His paltry numbers against lefties this year is baffling for sure. Are his outs more by contact or strikeout?
