Mookie Betts is sneakily off to a very slow start

Mookie Betts was great on Opening Day in Philadelphia this year.  Betts was also amazing in the home opener against the Nationals.  Unfortunately, those are pretty much his only two good games of the season.  Luckily for him, that is when the spotlight shone brightest, so I'm guessing most Red Sox fans are still enamored with his performance so far in 2015.

But, to this point Betts is batting just .196 with a .250 on-base percentage.  Outside of those two contests, he has just six hits in 10 games.  I really wish he'd stop trying to hit so many fly balls like Willie Mays-Hayes.
