It's not that he doesn't want to do it.

It's not that he's lackadaisical.

It's not that he's not posting up.

I mean, he's playing every day and playing relatively good defense, all that stuff.

And that's what makes it frustrating is it's just there's something intellectually that he isn't processing when it comes to hitting.

And maybe, and I said that, I think maybe he's just stubborn.

He may be really, really, really stubborn, and he may need a stinker of a year because this is the first time.

I mean, he's had expectations on him.

But this is the first time he's gone to the World Series and had the whole freaking baseball world talking about him.

He's on an island by himself.

And he's on an island by himself.

He is.

Exactly.

Yep.

There's nobody on that team who's a better hitter than him that he can talk to.

George is having a down year.

Yeah.

Who's he going to talk to around the cage that's going to help?

Well, I mean, there's lots of people he's talking to.

But I'm talking about players.
