The majority of LHHers are likely to be pull hitters as the natural arc of their swing lends itself to the pull side.

The kid is only a month+ into his major league career, pretty sure once he figures things out he'll use more of the field since he does have power going the other way.

The kid is in another mini slump. I look for him to break out again any game now. He will figure it out. He is the least of our worries....

The league is now feeding him a steady diet of breaking pitching as they've seen already he kills fastballs.

Agree 100% bcc, he'll figure things out.

I have ZERO worries about JJW!

I don’t worry about oppo power. I’m more into base git’s to left, and shots to the gap in LC field.

He's got good opposite field power BDog, that leads not only to HR"s but those doubles in the LCF gap and down the LF line.

He’d have to have one in the first place, he’s a fan of a team that is 15-23 and can’t get his Cardinals hate/jealousy out of his brain.

And besides, JJ’s OBP is .355 and SLG% is .421, so again not worried about him.

Numbers hurt too.
Years w/o WS championships.
Days left to live???

One is the loneliest number that you’ll ever do. Two can be as bad as one,…

Nine is naughty.
Three is a magic number.
But Zero is my hero

Isn't pitch location a factor to be considered into this conversation? If his hittable pitch happens to be on the inner half of the plate, I for one want him attacking that ball and pulling it to the right side if the field, not stepping away and trying to hit it off the thin part of the bat in efforts of going the other way.
His best approach? Take what the pitcher offers, and attack it.
His worst approach? Trying to even out his batted ball location just to appease the stat folks.

So what's your point? If you have one.

Moron who knows nothing about baseball.

I gave you my answer from experience, here's one from A.I.:

Left-handed MLB hitters largely pull the ball because it aligns with their optimal swing path to attack breaking pitches from right-handed pitchers, which break toward them. Pulling the ball takes advantage of their close proximity to first base and allows them to generate maximum power toward the shorter side of the field

most LHH are actually righties who switched while in high school (or earlier) - this is the reason they are pull hitters
