Move Bellinger down the lineup
Today sucked I think we can all agree. No one looked worse during their ABs then Cody. I love him but I think the pressure of the WS is getting to him. He is forcing the issue. Again its easy for us to criticize from the stands but 3 consecutive ABs with 3 Ks on 10 pitches is completely unacceptable at this stage. I get he is a rookie but holy fuck literally striking out on essentially the same pitch sequence is infuriating. Idk but I think he would benefit moving from 4th to maybe 6th or 7th. At this point the entire league knows what kind of swing he has and will pitch him accordingly. I might be completely wrong but maybe he realizes the impact he had during the regular season and is trying too hard. Maybe move him down to relieve some pressure?
PS I know he made a sick defensive grab on Reddicks bunt but im talking strictly offense rn, not defense.
