I am getting too used to Zubia fanning or K’d looking with his ABs.  Big hulking dude, but doesn’t seem to produce at the plate.

Think small sample size. Last year he had a 900 OPS.

I was thinking the exact same thing.  Half the time he is just looking.

exactly, he needs to get out of his own head.  I remember being in a "slump" and it seemed to take a while for me to stop thinking so much and just play.  Of course that was ages ago.

Not much has changed with the game.  The phrase, "don't think, it can only hurt the ball club" still rings true.

[joeywa]

Horns fall 4-0.

Final game tomorrow at 12:30 PM Central
