In today’s Daily, MLB.com’s Jamal Collier discusses Michael Taylor’s struggles at the plate this season. As Collier writes, Taylor struggled enormously with the bat while Ben Revere was on the disabled list but remains positive that he’ll be able to turn things around.
The outfielder is batting .185 through 25 games this season and leads the team with 32 strikeouts. Taylor spent most of the first month of the season as the team’s leadoff hitter and struggled mightily out of that spot, which contributed to the team’s early season offensive struggles.
Unfortunately for Taylor, he may not have many chances to turn his slump around.
