If they want to play dead-pull ball, join a slo-pitch softball league.

guys who get shifted are just bad situational hitters unable to make contact consistently on good pitches.

Shoot a few balls the other way and you'll see the shift drop.

sure, but there is a reason why batting averages are down, but home runs are up. - groiny Apr 3, 11:25 4
- No hitters like it when they are unable to adapt to it. - Will Hunting Apr 3, 11:30 3
  - it is tough, because then the pitchers pitch you inside, forcing you to hit where it is pitched. - groiny Apr 3, 11:34 2
    - They're being paid to hit the ball. If the pitchers can hit the outside corner all the time, it's moot - Will Hunting Apr 3, 11:39 1
      - the issue I have, is the hitter is confined to the batters box, while the fielders can line up wherever they want. - groiny Apr 3, 11:41
