Careful YANKEE. This is exactly the type of analysis that keeps a slump going. Hitting is so mental that as soon as a batter beleives he has a problem, he DOES! Albert needs to have the confidence and support of his coaching staff. He needs to review old and successful at bats. he needs to visualize success. The pressures of a new team, in a new town, and a few early failures have turned into a slump. Every hitter experiences them. They usually last longer than they need to because soemone tries to fix something that is not broke.
