WRIGHT MR. INCONSISTENT
David Wright is hitting .205 in his last 10 games, recording more than one hit in only 20% of the games. While picking up 11 RBIs, he has struck out an alarming 14 times in 39 at-bats. In 8 of the games, he struck out at least once and in five he has struck out two or more times. Wright did not strike out in Game 1 against the Phillies, and his average remained at a lame .261 with a 1-for-4 performance that consisted of a very lucky poorly defended double and no walks or RBIs. With just 8 home runs, many are asking where the all-star has gone. Why in the world is he fading away and more importantly, as a core to the Mets offense in these crucial games (particularly against the Phils), when will he improve?
