McCann just sucks now. His career ended with the onset of the shift.

The shift is maddening but I don’t understand how MLB players can’t go the other way

The shift wrecked Brian McCanns career. Took him from a .270-.300 hitting catcher down to a .230 hitter.

I may dislike this new Apple commercial song more than watching Giles pitch.

Same here. The defense adjusted. Now it’s time for the offense to learn to adjust and the shift will go away. That’s why I find it ridiculous that they wanna make it illegal

Looking like chumps. The 1and 2 holes have been a damn black hole.

Does anyone have a real theory on why we hit like shite at home? Is the batters eye the conclusion? I don’t understand

And the four hole.

Correa hasn’t done shite either.

Correa just refuses to come through. Springer would rather try to playblawyer ball and walk than take the fricking bat off his shoulder, and Yuli is out of the game. Not looking great

They obviously put a different one in there for the top of the innings.

Correa scalded one to the left side but got no lift to it. He had an acre of real estate down the LF line.


Prom I think it was you I responded to last night talking about the Chron article where Bregs said teams are pinching the gaps.

That shift is that they were talking about. More teams are moving their LF to the far edge of the boxes to shade that power ally.
