Casey at the bat
I don't like to repeat myself, but Sean Casey's turnaround this season continues to amaze and delight. On April 21, Casey was batting .158 and slugging .193, with 1 RBI and 2 runs. Jim Leyland said he wasn’t worried; I was. That’s why Leyland does what he does, and I just write about it. In his 65 games since April 21, Casey is batting .341 and slugging .463, with 34 RBI and 24 runs. Over his last 44 games, The Mayor is batting .371 with a .955 OPS. Since hitting his first HR on June 19, he is .373 in BA, 1.067 in OPS and has 13 RBI in 17 games. He absolutely crushed one last night in Safeco, which isn't one of the easier parks to hit homers.
