Abstract
- The article relates the opinions of some professional baseball players in the U.S. on whether on not the lineup protection is working for a team. According to Doug Fister of the Boston Red Sox, the said offensive strategy is a factor in situations. Chase Headley of New York Yankees said that the effectiveness of lineup protection is situational. Brian Dozler stresses that it makes sense to pitch to the other guy if one guy is hotter.
