    Th book is out on him

    don't pitch him inside

    they are just pitching him outside and he can't do anything with it

    doesn't matter up or down , he loves the ball in

    w/o a major adjustment, his power will only be off mistakes

    He'll come around and get some hits. Just has to adjust.

    My favorite team - I watch him quite a bit - he has hit some balls decent that are getting caught - really think he can catch fire and get it going.

    Hmm, thanks for the info team. I will hold him for a bit longer and see if he can get out of this funk. I do not have a good prospect to replace the best alternatives available are panik lawrie or zobrist

    3/5 with a double and a couple runs tonight.

    i think it is pretty safe to conclude that dozier is an sbr forum follower and didnt want to be cut off my fantasy team.

    dozier if you are reading this, one night won't fix your batting average. persistent contribution towards increasing your batting average will help both of us out here pal. you will get a bigger contract and i will get a bigger head from winning at fantasy baseball.

    I'm in the same boat.
    Dozier is starting off very bad(putting it mildly)

    What I'm doing about it is I'm streaming 2nd baseman because their isn't alot of consistent 2nd baseman out there.

    Chris Owings for now (Az)
    Tommy Lastella vs. righties (Cubs)
    Chase Utley (LAD)
    Scooter Gennet on the dl (Mil)

    to name a few

    I'm not gonna drop him for at least another month to see if he can turn it around because the potential is worth it.

    For now, I'm gonna keep streaming

    When Dozier isn't getting pitches inside that he can put into the seats he isn't going to do much for you (unless you like your second baseman hitting .220) he has been able to score runs in the past as well but this twins team is pretty miserable right now.

    Previous poster nailed it that the book is out and until he can prove he can go the other way he will struggle IMO.

    Let's see what he does tonight against McHugh. A few hits and all of sudden he might get hot?

    Can't blame you. Man - hitting 204 - Last year when he hit 28 homers - he only hit - what 236? Not even sure he can maintain his starting spot if he cannot hit better than 204??? He better figure out how to get on base and forget the home runs and long fly balls!

    Just got robbed of a run scoring double. Twins probably won't score today.

    How can you win with a 2b hitting 200? Where do you cut the cord? 180???
