Yeah, a walk certainly doesn't hurt but you can't be hunting them in hitters counts.
Problem is the pitchers know it now. If he gets to 3 balls he isn't swinging until there are 2 strikes, so they can just groove it and get him out.

He's going to be good, I am not concerned, but it is an adjustment he needs to make

Arroyo was polite at first and then justifiably angry. Two awful calls. These umps can't get replaced fast enough IMO

Feels like they have just missed a bunch tonight, whether it's not quite nailing something down the middle, hitting something just foul, or smoking the ball right at someone. One of those nights.
