Quick Glance: New Giants Manager Bob Melvin Implements Anthem Policy Change
  • Under new leadership, San Francisco Giants are taking a firm stance during the anthem. New skipper Bob Melvin introduced a policy change mandating every individual in the dugout to stand on the field for the national anthem.

  • Melvin emphasized to USA Today's Bob Knightengale that the decision was not politically driven but aimed at nurturing a sense of unity within the team.

  • A shift in policy. This move signifies a departure from the previous approach under Gabe Kapler, who had attracted attention with his anthem-related actions.

  • Drawing from his MLB managerial experience in Oakland and San Diego, Melvin sees this policy as crucial in fostering a collective spirit among players.

Dodgers shifting Mookie Betts to shortstop, Gavin Lux to second base
Quick Glance: Misguided Move: Dodgers Shift Mookie Betts to Shortstop
  • The Dodgers had ample time to address Gavin Lux's struggles at shortstop but opted to move Mookie Betts instead.

  • Betts is displaced to accommodate Lux at second base for offensive reasons, a decision that raises questions about the team's strategy.

  • Delay in finding a new shortstop reveals organizational shortcomings, with Lux's performance in just six spring games dictating the sudden position change.

  • The Dodgers' disruptive move to shift Betts exemplifies a troubling pattern of prioritizing analytics over player stability and success.
