On the plus Bellinger is a beast this year . But playing for a different team
Vladdy D has been very bad this year but was good last year . Everything is in his head at the moment it seems like.
His hard hit ball % is deceiving because his hands are late when he gets the ball in the air so usually it’s hard on the ground soft in the air . When his hands arrive properly he hits line drive doubles and those equate to HRs when barreling the ball
But no one on the team can hit . The hitting coach has to go and yesterday to see if someone can fix Vlad . You can see he isn’t having fun during the games much this year
To put it in perspective Varsho has a 2.8 WAR and Vlad a 1.0.
Varsho has been worth almost 2 more wins then Vlad ….
