With his batting average falling from .490 to .400, I was under the impression that Paul Lo Duca was really slumping. But the decline has been a soft slide more than a collapse; his batting/on-base/slugging/OPS numbers in that time are .241/.313/.448/.751. Nothing heroic there, but not an abomination either.
Meanwhile, will Dave Ross (.491 OPS) turn out to be this year's Mike Kinkade, without the hit-by-pitches? Too soon to tell, but I thought he'd start better.
