Also, I think it would be a good idea to change the approach mid-game because the other team knows we are taking and many time they are throwing meatballs for the first pitch.

I struggle with whether it's a coached approach or hitters being uncomfortable. I don't recall JJs teams ever not being aggressive at the plate. I've seen him speak about his philosophy and it's more about being selective early in the count for pitches that can be hit hard. My guess is selectiveness has become timidness.
