        is pitching better or are the the fundamentals of hitting not being taught?'

        Front offices value power more. Guys who slap singles left and right don't have same capacity to instantly change a game.

        instant gratification is not baseball! 😥the game long strategy, moving runners, pitchers duels, outwitting other team.

        Power doesnt take away from that. It's just a more effective way to build an offense.

        lots of reasons for this, shifting and hitters lack of discipline. #cremationshursttexas, #cremationsgrapevinetexas #martinoaks

        not discipline just baseball metrics. Hit bottom half of ball and high launch angles, swing as hard as you can every time

        I'm not convinced. Let's see if this trend continues, and I doubt it will.

        I think it will. Advanced scouting and identifying weaknesses benefits pitchers significantly more. Especially with shifting.

        Shifts provide opportunities to those who are willing to take advantage of them. If hitters do, teams will stop shifting.

        Yeah but that's why they shift haha. Because those guys have no ability to adjust

        That seems a real shame. Or are pitchers just getting better?
