Cruz has done nothing.

I don't think you can just blame the hitting coach for this.

Maybe it's just the fact that your players are not performing well enough.

And I know four games, one in three to start.

No one seems like they've improved yet.

Emmanuel and Carnegie joins the show.

Hi, Emmanuel.

Yeah, he is.

Let him go through his growing pains.

That's the best way he's going to become the best batter at the shortstop position by the season ends.

We're holding him back.

I think we cost us a game yesterday.

The acquisitions we brought in outside of Osona is doing really, really good.

But Reynolds and Cruz have started to become a little bit of a concern the last year and a half.

Yeah, thanks, man.

Here's the thing, too.

You expect... I thought Brian Reynolds and...

Maybe he's historically a slow starter, too.

Reynolds has never been, outside of that year they started 20-8, when he had five home runs in the first two or three weeks of the season, was leading baseball in home runs, and was just on a tearing path.

He's having a really good start to the year.
