I guess that means the Dodgers won't be doing this again:
This was against the Padres and Seth Smith on August 30, and it WORKED!

Probably the stupidest thing I have ever heard. The manager should be allowed to shift his players wherever he wants
You want to eliminate those shifts, just hit the ball to the opposite field.
Tradition is a set of solutions for which we have forgotten the problems.
If you're that predictable of a hitter that a shift like that would work, you should probably not be in the majors.

Seth Smith has about the same spray chart as David Ortiz.
It would be dumb to disallow shifts, but if it somehow does happen, i'd love to see how often Ortiz would get thrown out at first at this point of his career after a sharp grounder into right field.
Maybe stopping shifts is MLB's answer to the NFL calling defensive holding on every other pass play this year just to get more offense in the game.
