Second, to single out Hart for concentration lapses seems unfair as most players seem to struggle with this at times during the course of a six month, 162 game schedule.

And it's no secret that his concentration lapses at times. Hart’s OPS is currently 140 points over last season; I’d say that’s a bit of a difference.

Yeah, I think he still has something left in the tank. As for Hart, there is no doubt that he had a terrible September. But I think many fans over-reacted to that, started to believe he sucked the entire second half of 2008 and, consequently, were getting ready to write him off as a result. The fact is, Hart didn't fall off the table the entire second half (as legend suggests). In July and August he hit .283 with a .789 OPS. Not tremendous numbers, but certainly not the disaster that some corners of Brewers Nation would have you believe. So I would say Corey Hart isn't back as I don't think he ever went anywhere, at least not anywhere too far. As I read this, Mike Cameron doubles with the bases loaded…
