I was trying to put a finger on what I felt was wrong with the offense and I think the lack of smallball totally fits the bill.
The offense doesn't feel in sync because it can't thread rallies together.
We're doing better than last year because the offense has 'extended' by being on base more.
But now the problem is that the team seems to hit out of sequence... GIDP then HR... Solo HR... Can't SF worth beans, etc.
Part of that is definitely randomness, but part of it feels like hitting without a plan.
Well, maybe a plan, but not necessarily planning for the outcome.
Which is odd for a team coached by Edgar.
