It didn't seem like too long ago that there was talk about whether or not the Cleveland Guardains' leadoff hitter Steven Kwan could hit .400 for the season. At one point in the middle of June, he had hit that mark.
Now, Kwan's average is just below .300 on the season, and he's hitting just .197 after the All-Star Break with a BABIP of .198 as well.
Guardians manager Stephen Vogt discussed Kwan's struggles, revealing what he thinks may be behind them and what he's seeing different from the start of the year.
"For [Kwan], a lot of it is maybe a little bit of timing and pitch selection," said Vogt. "He's getting pitched differently than he has. I think teams aren't just going right after him; they're pitching to him. For any hitter that's going through maybe a little bit of a down swing, you're going to try and do more, you're going to try and combat."
