More concerning is how infrequent Butler & Gordon even hit the ball hard. Gordon had a long double today, but it's become such a rarity for him to even hit a ball into the gap. His power was prodigious as a prospect and even his first couple years he'd hit some really long HR. Now? He's a slap hitting Rusty Greer clone. He tried to cut his swing down and go more opposite field to reduce his Ks but guess what? He's still striking out 140x/yr. Only now there's no power to go with it.
Butler isn't even worth talking about anymore.
