Just watching the Twins-Jays game and for Jim Thome's first at-bat the Jays put a shift on him that I don't think I have ever seen. They had the 1B (Lind) in the usual position, the 2B (Hill) in shallow right, the 3B (Nix) at the usual 2B position, the SS (Escobar) at the usual position, and a pretty sizeable hole down the left field line. Thome then lined out to Nix. At the major league level, can't players hit the ball a little better than that, even if they are pull hitters?
