:daps:  I'm just referring to the fact that in:
2008 - fanned 16 times in 44 AB's, had a 0.12 EYE, and looked overwhelmed
2009 - fanned 5 times in 22 AB's, had a 0.40 EYE, and looked comfortable
Short AB's of course, but scouts send in reports based on a weekend series.  Tui had 14 games in 2008 and 7 in 2009, and looked fine to me in 2009.

Tui struck out way too much in the PCL in '09, no doubts there.  He did have a big August, though, with a >.600 SLG.  Still, your point is well taken that Tui kept fanning a ton in the PCL in 2009.
I agree with you that another go-round at Tacoma would be preferable.  I liked the way he battled in Safeco, though.   He looked 100% un-shrill in the batter's box.
