[QUOTE="eddiespin, post: 427425, member: 4920"]That's fine. I didn't just join here, yesterday, Doug. I'm aware you call a tight strike zone. Toned Morgans [I]are [/I]going crazy, though. That's why I think a common date Lincoln wheat (and, you can't get much more "common" than a '58-D) might be an interesting change for us, perhaps even somewhat of a learning experience. After all, the strike zone is the same size for all hitters...from the knees to the pits. Thus, we have to go by the same rules, apply the same principles, for all hitters, regardless of size.
