Geez Back Off

Here I go again defending Sosa. Look around the Cubs blogs and they are slamming Sosa left and right for not making adjustments to his game. Like that can just happen over night and the next day he will come out a brand new player hitting .350 with instant power.

Let's get something straight. What Sosa has done for most of his career he can't undo. He has always been an impatient streaky hitter. And that impatient streaky hitter has also put together some of the greatest season's by a power hitter in recent memorey. He will keep hitting the same way until the day he retires. What he has done his entire career has made him a Hall of Famer, GET OFF HIS JOCK!

You may not like his current slump but deal with it, sh*t happens. When he starts hitting again, these same bloggers will be silent until the next slump comes and they will yell and scream at how worthless Sosa is and we need to get rid of him, blah blah blah.

One person who never got any bad responses on Cubs blogs was Alex Gonzalez. He never adjusted his game and that is why is a .240 hitter for his career. That is the definition of a hitter that NEVER makes adjustments. The real hitters in baseball go through slumps and come out of it by making subtle adjustments to their game. Sosa is no exception.

And if your one of those bloggers comparing Bonds to Sosa and saying look he makes adjustments why cant Sosa, you need immediate psychiatric help.
