I know most of you have your jerseys hanging in the rafters somewhere, so I know this is the perfect place to ask this question...
At what point is a batter "who he is"?
How long do you let someone swing their way out of a hole?
Half of our lineup is batting under the Mendoza line.
Do you pull someone after 30 ABs? 50 ABs? 75 ABs?
I totally understand this question has nuance. I wouldn't expect a freshmens like Cupp to come out of the gate batting .333. I realize you have to look at their previous track record as well. I understand you have consider their defense too.
