Nomar Garciaparra Slumping



Nomar Garciaparra Slumping

Nomar GarciaparraIt sure hasn’t been a good spring training for Nomar Garciaparra so far. Sure, it’s only spring training, but this is the time when hitters are normally tearing the cover off the ball due to soft pitching. Has Normar Garciaparra lost his ability or is he just in a mental funk? Let’s take a look at the number so far.

Nomar Garciaparra has played in 7 spring training games so far and has received 20 plate appearances—so about 3 per game. He’s managed one lone hit. That’s right one for twenty. Is this the same Nomar Garciaparra who was a consistent hitter in Boston? The answer is clearly no.

We will all have to wait and see if Garciaparra can shake the funk and get back to hitting the ball. However, if he’s having this much trouble against what amounts to mostly minor league pitching, it’s evident that he’s not anywhere near ready for the MLB regular season.
