They're level swings that shoot the ball through the gaps. He hasn't been swinging like that for months. He's taking big cuts, and getting under the ball, hitting silly pop-ups around the field. I hope he pulls it back together. Thing is, it seems that many of his triples are not big swings. They’re level swings that shoot the ball through the gaps.

A singles hitter with no speed in the middle of the lineup scares me. No reason to panic about Jose, he's got great talent and will put together at least a solid season. But I see absolutely nothing that makes me think Delgado isn't just going to continue on his downward arc. We simply don't have enough run production in that 5-7 area right now. I like Delgado, but I think he's going to be a tremendous weight on this team this year. Frankly I am more worried about the offense over the pitching for this year.

He does look relaxed or confident at the plate. Something is wrong with him, I think he needs to have fun and play for fun, dance around and enjoy it. like he did on 2006. All the handshakes and high-fives is what made the team exciting and fun and it showed in the way they played.WE NEED HIM BACK!! He needs to get on base and scare the pitcher into throwing bad pitches and dance up and down the third base line and induce a balk, thats what he does best.
