[QUOTE="FredJacket, post: 883808, member: 2843"] The shift is an interesting one for "old school" types. You don't like the shift? But it is not a rule change that brought it about. It was intelligent analysis on putting defense in best "position" to get a batter out. If you hate the shift... it's going to take a new rule to get rid of it. I hate new rules! Deal with the shift by learning/adjusting to the defensive adjustment aimed at you. Where does it end in effort to create more offense? Why not remove a defender (or 2). Make all the outfielders play within 250 ft of home plate? Eliminate the curve ball. All those ideas are as dumb (to me) as dictating where defenders position themselves. [/QUOTE]
