I'm not an expert but Nimmo appears to be taking pitches down the middle and yet Mickey, undoubtedly quoting Chili, wants him to "expand the strike zone." How about swinging at pitching IN the strike zone? Conforto is susceptible to getting tied up inside and I don't remember that happening last season. I think (don't know) that he's being told to extend his arms so he can go the other way (he has "oppo power", as we know) but is failing to "look inside", too. I wonder if he's standing closer to the plate. Bryant and Rizzo wanted Davis fired and I haven't read anything to indicate that they are bad guys.
