Message: [QUOTE="donniesyracuse, post: 4692028, member: 101"] I am not worried about Stanton. He gets into some of the ugliest slumps, but at some point he will carry the team. His presence in the lineup makes a difference. I do, of course, worry about him being healthy. It is a shame that he is not playing the field because that would make room for Peraza. LeMahieu is a concern. His strikeout percentage is way up this year (26.6%). He has been a somewhat inconsistent offensive performer in his career, but he usually strikes out less than 15% of the time. When guys start to strikeout more, it is often because they are chasing balls out of the strike zone, but LeMahieu's chase rate this year is close to his career rate. I have no clue what is going on.
