Completely agree bud. When we saw them play the Sox at Fenway this year my daughter was wearing a Davis t-shirt.
Between innings he tossed her a ball and batting gloves.
I actually love the guy as a person. He contributes alot to his community and is a class act.
He really needs to find a solid hitting coach and sports psychologist.
Baseball is a tough fukin game. I truly believe he became his own worse enemy. Going up to the plate with zero confidence is a recipe for disaster.
I'm hoping he pulls it together for next season. With Adam Jones probably not resigning this off season Davis will be one of the few veteran players to help guide our very young team.
Like the "experts" always say, hitting is (insert high percentage here) % mental. A lot of hitting REALLY is mental, as like you said, you can just see a hitter who is lacking confidence at the plate look lost. I hate to see that for a good dude like C Davis. Ya feel bad seeing a guy struggle in front of thousands of frustrated fans game after game, when you know he REALLY does care and feels worse than anyone about it.
Again, hoping 2019 is better for him.
