| Carlos Ruiz seeking power switch |
by Bill Passonno | CBSSports.com (5/13/13) After bashing a career-high 16 home runs last season, Phillies catcher Carlos Ruiz is still searching for his first blast this year. Ruiz, who was suspended the first 25 games, was able to move his batting average to an even .200 after extending his hitting streak to six outings Sunday at Arizona.
Last season, Ruiz went only four games before registering his first home run and went deep three times over his first month.

| Carlos Ruiz trying to find comfort zone |
by Michael Hurcomb | CBSSports.com (5/7/13) Phillies catcher Carlos Ruiz sat for the second time in five games Monday against the Giants as he continues to settle back in after serving a 25-game suspension. Ruiz is batting just .100 (2 for 20) through his first six games and said he's attempting to find his comfort zone at the plate, according to The Philadelphia Inquirer.
"I try to use the middle of the field," Ruiz said. "When I try to do that, that's when you're going to swing at better pitches. You're going to let the ball travel a little bit more and you're going to see if it's a strike. I think that helped me a lot. And I felt more comfortable with myself. I feel OK swinging with two strikes, I can still drive the ball, put it the other way. When you put all of that together, that's when you're going to have success."

| Despite missing 38 late-season games with plantar fasciitis, Carlos Ruiz had a career year across the board in 2012, setting highs in home runs (16), RBI (68), doubles (32), batting average (.325), and steals (four). And then, in November, Ruiz got hit with a 25-game PED suspension, and the world let out a collective "a-ha!" To Ruiz' credit, this was for amphetamines, not steroids, so it was more of a focus thing than muscle-building. And since we've seen what he is capable of doing while missing 38 games, not having him for 25 doesn't seem like such a terrible prospect. Ruiz' numbers were essentially even at home and on the road, although he did have a much higher average in the first half of the season. But his peripherals didn't change much, outside of his HR/FB rate spiking (via FanGraphs). Based on his career prior to 2012 and the revelation that he tested positive for PEDs, Ruiz is a good bet to dip back down in most categories. But we can't fully ignore last season, so the dip may not be that dramatic. It's not crazy to expect Ruiz to hit double-digits in home runs again, but he will end up much closer to 10 home runs than 20. His regression and suspension should combine to make him a late-round selection in most leagues. (Updated 12/7/12) |
