I guess the Red Sox proved once and for all that tht & other rotational principles is the way to win! Did Pujols or Rolen demonstrate rotational principles? Not hardly! Thanks a lot Jack for providing the inspiration to the Red Sox, but I really wish you and your rotational principles would inspire the Cubs next year!

>>There are two kinds of hitters,those that are in a slump and those that are about to be.Some of the redsox were having trouble with the yankees.Damon and ramirez I believe.What is important is how you bring yourself out of it.Damon was out front taking bad swings on front foot often.Then he had an at bat where he foulded 2 liners that were just off the plate away oppo foul and hooked 2 balls foul that were just in on the plate,all with 2 strikes.Finally they painted the outside corner and he lined it between ss and 3rd to start off the game.After that his confidence and his ability was back.I feel he decided to let the ball come to him[wait],Look away react in:To help break out of the slump and bring all back into focus.
Don't forget hitting 90+mph fastballs with movement and offspeed is the hardest thing to do,and little things can throw it all off,even how you are seeing the ball.
