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 ….
Vlad however comes from baseball royalty. It’s a good question if he even listens to advice from coaches. Remember the story earlier this year where his uncle came in to fix his swing? I think his dad being a guy famous for hitting everything also doesn’t help if he think he can follow daddies technique.
