Yeah, it’s the glasses and not having 2 very scary hitters following him, sure.

Likely more to do with Mauer recovering from his concussion issues — as much as he can — than some glasses or giving other hitters credit.
Concussions can really mess up a lot more than you realize.

The key comment is “It makes you keep your head still and keep your head back,”. A big problem the last couple years for Mauer was that he was pulling of pitches. Which can cause swings and misses and/or weak contact. So the glasses probably help that. Plus I agree that him getting healthy is a big part too. And the big boys behind him can’t hurt either. Any way, glad to see him hitting again.

Maybin from Asheville, NC has been a major loss reminiscent of how the Tigers did when they lost the great Chester Lemon.
