Yoenis Cespedes considering golfing to try to break slump
New York Mets outfielder Yoenis Cespedes isn’t getting it done at the plate, and he admitted he’s considering revisiting a slumpbuster that he had tried to swear off.
Cespedes said in the past during slumps he would golf to help him break out of it, but had said he wouldn’t play during the season this year. He’s reconsidering that stance after a bad start.
Cespedes. "1of the things I did before when I was in a slump was play golf to get out of my slump. This season I said I wouldn’t play golf. 1 of the things I’m doing & didn’t do before was watching the videos & now I’m watching the videos. Unfortunately things aren’t going well."

Cespedes has taken drastic action before, but you gotta respect this. He tried to keep his focus on baseball instead of his side hobbies, but he’s hitting .208 with 34 strikeouts in 19 games. If golf is going to help him, let the man golf.
