Braves fixed Robbie Grossman in matter of days; Tigers couldn't all season

Detroit — Robbie Grossman had two home runs in 320 plate appearances with the Tigers this season. He had two homers in his first 30 plate appearances with the Atlanta Braves since the trade earlier this month.

And Tigers fans aren't going to be happy hearing Grossman's explanation.

According to an article this week in The Athletic, Braves hitting coach Kevin Seitzer and Grossman are crediting quick work by Atlanta's analytics experts. They apparently spotted a flaw in his swing in a matter of days, when the Tigers had no answers for months.
