I don't really know what the heck has happened, but in his last two advancement periods, my player's been in a MONSTER slump. This is his 6th season now (3rd full season at the MLB level). Finished last year batting .301, having missed around 55 games due to injury.
To give an idea of how bad this slump has been: After the first two advancement periods (roughly 5 weeks or so), he was hitting around .345, with 6 HRs (not a power hitter, so this is pretty good this early), 19 RBIs, 11 BBs, 11 Ks. Felt awesome to have as many walks as Ks. Now, after the next two advancement periods (again, roughly 5 weeks or so): .237 BA

Yeah...there's been quite a bit of shots that have been good, hard liners, deep flies, etc. , that just resulted in outs. Plenty of "Good at-bats", just a LOT of outs. And for some reason, it's been more difficult to check swing, resulting in a lot more Ks.
Anyway...it's been downright infuriating at times. I keep pushing through, thinking "his ratings are way too good, I've GOT to be due for a monster hot streak any day now..." Despite all these struggles, still can't stop playing it. REALLY want to get back to being a very difficult out, as he was early in the season.
