not sure if his drop in stats is still due to his jammed finger or if he's hit the rookie wall. the only other rookie that has bounced back recently from that wall has been ike davis.

Or maybe choke up on the bat or get his elbow up.
His swing mechanics are fine. But he stands so far off the plate that when pitchers throw on the outside, he just rolls it over. Not sure why he isn't going the other way like he was earlier.

His jammed finger isn’t causing him to swing at just about every curve ball in the dirt. As soon as he gets over that he’ll be fine. I remember watching Matt Williams do the same thing his rookie year. He was sent down a couple of times until he figured it out. As soon as he figured it out he was golden.

He's a rookie, he's 20. I am pretty sure even Pujols or others had a slump somewhere during their first campaign. He will bounce back.

From Albert Pujols' rookie season, June 29 - July 24:

20 games
13 for 69, .188 BA
2 HRs
6 RBIs
5 runs
13 Ks
5 GIDP
OPS .633

Even worse than that are the numbers from the worst stretch of this HOFer's rookie season:
19 games
7 for 51, .137
1 HR
1 RBI
5 runs
22 Ks
OPS .450

That's from July 4th - July 29th, 1973. Guess the rookie.

Heyward has seemed to stop going the other way. Hopefully, he'll get back to that.
