The Cubs Hitting

Posted by Smitty 13

ESPN and others have given alot of credit to Kosuke Fukudome for the cubs patients at the plate. Kosuke is patient, works the count, and has a great approach at the plate. I think the credit should go to the cubs hitting coach gerald perry. he has done a great job with all of the Cub hitters.

i agree. a coach is only as good as the players he coaches. if you watch the cubs though you can see they have a different approach at the plate then years past. in the past years it was "lets gets some sluggers and wait for the 3 run homer" i see more of a plan with each pitcher they face. they have more consistant hitter with power in the line up. even ramirez has looked at more pitches this year then in the past.
