    There were no overshifts that I can remember where players were playing out of position. If it was done, it was extremely rare. The shifting occurred mainly in the OF.

    There were none after they lowered the mound in 1969, 70 or 71 either.

    MVP is spot on ...Nuney can't be counted on in the infield and is sufficiently good enough in OF .

    Well, MVP referenced a picture of one with Willie McCove in 1969; it didn't involve having somebody playing short righ field though.

    You should know one should never talk in absolutes; your profession has field days making people who do look, well, silly.
    The Yankees could go 0-162 and it wouldn't be enough
