I never understood why Figgins felt he had to change. If the object batting second is to move the runner up from first to second, a walk is just as good as a single and better than a sacrifice or groundout to second. I mean, men on first and second with none out is better than man on second with one out. It's not rocket science; you learn stuff like that when you're 8 years old. It doesn't matter how it gets done, just get it done. If you are good at doing it one way, why on earth would you think you had to change to doing it a different way?
I will be as happy as heck for him to have a really good April -June so he can be traded for something more than a box of doughnuts at the deadline.
