Oh, it’s not dreaming. I’ve watched more than a few Ortiz at bats this year and his slump is not because he cannot catch up to a fast ball. It’s a mechanics and timing problem that he will fix before this season is over.
i would love to see it but as a true sox fan i have been watching him the last couple years and he is struggling with more than mechanics. he should have had wrist surgery in the off season and i am sure in the 2nd half we are going to see him on the dl resting it once again. i do not believe he ever recovered from it. he is slower getting around on fastballs and he has never been a good off speed pitch hitter. i honestly think his better playing days are behind him.
