All the stats in the world don't tell you as much as the eye test about Jay Bruce.
Clearly a headcase with RISP. Clearly can't handle getting 2 strikes. Clearly will always swing at that breaking off speed pitch.

Yes that was a very impressive infield single. I thought for a second it was leaving the yard. - texasdave 10/13/12
Riiiight.....this is a problem that just started in the last 17 innings for him. Of course.
And he's also a productive player. So was Paul O'Neill. And we ran him out of town too.
.801 career OPS with RISP....812 career OPS
.822 OPS with RIPS last year.....841 overall RISP
He's pretty much the same hitter with RISP as any other time, maybe slightly worse.
If you take away the 9 hits the Angels have collected, the Reds would have a no-hitter going right now.
"In our sundown perambulations of late, through the outer parts of Brooklyn, we have observed several parties of youngsters playing 'base', a certain game of ball. Let us go forth awhile, and get better air in our lungs. Let us leave our close rooms, the game of ball is glorious"
-Walt Whitman
And we will be wasting Chapman in a tie game again. YES!
Yeah those runs scoring the past couple innings, all on the offense.
It's a made up problem.
Yup. We were dreadful. And I punted on the season. Learned my lesson lol.
No one is saying he is not a good player or we want to run him out of town.
I do not agree with Vottomatic on much.....but he clearly is seeing the same thing I am.
