He was upset about the fielding shifts. He noted that the Phillies shifts are allowing hits that would normally
be outs. He said the big inning for the Giants could have been avoided. Kingery was out of position on a potential double play grounder and everybody was safe. Also a grounder to 2nd turned into a base hit in the
same inning when Hernandez was stationed near the bag. Guess what? He was right! The Phillies should
have been out of the inning! He let Flex know that he wants some changes, so it could get interesting!

i think he was also pissed the only run scored during the entire series was his solo shot.

the shifts are annoying, but the real issue here is the offense is fucking garbage

I saw that article Northeast. Apparently some of the players are fed-up with the bullshit and the unnecessary losing. He is the first to go public.

Just a matter of time Retro. Flex needs to wise up!

Shifts are used extensively by all teams. Does Arrieta believe Flex’s shifts are not set up correctly, or what?

Even Arrieta stated “we had a pretty good April and a pretty good May”, so let’s face it, the sky is not falling. It’s only June 4! Three bad losses in a row to the Giants is unfortunate. But it’s damn troublesome since the offensive action has wilted. Two wins in Chicago could help but that seems unlikely. Maybe let’s get through June to see if Kapler can fix it all.

Worst shifting team in baseball by a statistical million.
