Ban defensive shifts?

Insanity worse than the designated hitter!

Just need better batting coaches.

Re: 11 - Agreed. The shift is not the problem.

I am 100% in favor of a pitch clock. And calling a strike if the batter steps out of the box.

But please stop a runner being on second base in extra innings! Why not just put the ball on a tee if they will start runners in scoring position!

= = =

Does this mean the third baseman can’t play close to home plate on anticipated bunt???

Yep, bad insanity.
