He is killing us at the plate..He is killing us in the field..I have to say although I dont blame Farhan for making the trade, but this is the one big stain on his watch for us..Shame we played so hard and will prolly come in 2nd place...Dodgers cant seem to lose and I have this feeling we will just just come up a bit short

I have still faith that Bryant will get it together, but it's fading each day. You have to take into consideration that Bryant hasn't faced a lot of the pitching he's faced recently, before. We could end up playing St. Louis and Milwaukee in the post-season, who Bryant has faced a lot.
Speaking of Milwaukee, they'll be playing the Dodgers this weekend, Milwaukee in my opinion is the team to beat for us. Milwaukee will not roll over for the Dodgers. All the Brewers have to do is take one game from the Dodgers and it will set it up for us to where we only have to take 1 game from the Padres. We've held off the Dodgers basically all season, I don't see that changing this weekend.

Last night they said Bryant was 4 for his last 27 or something to that effect.
Milwaukee is not going to be lying down for the Dodgers this weekend. They've been playing poorly since clinching and there is a bit of urgency to have some momentum entering the playoffs.

I hate to be a Debbie Downer but I cant agree that Bryant is just having issues with pitchers/ teams that he isnt used to facing.. His At Bats appear to not have a game plan.. He lunges at the first pitch for quick outs and seems like he is guessing all the time instead of seeing the ball thru the plate.. He is def pressing and there is no doubt he is a much better hitter than he has shown, but with him and longo in the lineups it just seems to be easy outs after easy outs and it wont opay well when we have to play good teams in the playoffs. I really hope the coaching staff can set them straight... His defense though has been atrocious and like someone in M Covey chronicles noted this better shave 20m off of his asking orice!!

I'm not making an excuse for Bryant being in a slump, but him not being familiar with a lot of the pitching he's seen could figure into his inability to pull himself out of this slump he's in.

Krukow was saying today that maybe he can walk his way out of that slump.
