Again, if you can’t beat the shift, you can be replaced by someone who can
Learn to bunt, choke up on the bat, use a lighter bat.... If your career depends on it
Right, so some fool owner gives Manny Machado $250M for 10 seasons and he won't bunt or "go the other way" (sounds fag right off the bat (pun)....Guaranteed contract, can't fire him, release him and you have to pay him anyway. Now what? Keep the shift, but keep the infielders on the infield dirt...it's common sense so you'll probably disagree.
A lot of it depends on " situation" IMVHO. Playoff game down by 3, RF shift? It would seem a real player knows you need runners. The risk of trying for an HR is not worth it? Maybe the P hates the stretch?
Hey, how come you dont see many LF shifts? if so many RH pull hitters?
