Note: All or Nothing with David Wright
In a loss to the Pirates yesterday,
David Wright was 2 for 5 with a double and a three-run HR.
Wright, on his performance, while speaking to reporters following yesterday’s game:
“As stupid as it sounds, some days you get hits and some days you don’t. It’s just a matter of going up there and having confidence, even when you are struggling.”
Wright is hitting .444 with three home runs and nine RBI during his last six games.
In the seven games before that, Wright hit just .115 with two RBI.
In the eight games before that, he hit .424 – and in the 10 games before that, he hit .204.
…i ran out of patience while looking at his stats, but i have a feeling that trend continues all the way through the start of the season…and so i wonder, is it ‘all or nothing,’ when it comes to wright’s offensive production…not that there is anything wrong with that, assuming other people in the lineup are performing…it’s just, if this is what he is, it would make me less frustrated when he’s struggling, because i know it will be short lived and he’ll be hot again next week…
By the way, Wright’s home run yesterday was the 120th of his career, moving him into a tie with Edgardo Alfonzo for seventh on the team’s all-time home run list.
