You're kidding, right?

MLB.com asks the following question: how can Cristian Guzman be hitting so badly?

Are you kidding? It should be obvious even to a novice why Guzman isn't hitting. He lunges at most every ball, completely forgetting that he should plant and then turn on his back foot. The most Guzman can do is slap at the ball, meaning that even when he makes contact he looks like he's playing badminton.

Question: how many other major league hitters do you mistake for a badminton player?

Precisely our point.
