Totally agree with your “stance” on bunting. Yelich could get his average back to .350 if he’d drop bunts against the shift. Then, if they stop shifting, a few more of his ground balls to the right side would go through. That’s just one example, but there are others. How many close games have the Brewers been involved in? A bunt can be the difference in a one or two-run game.
