Hey all. First post . Discovered the site a few weeks ago and have been reading ever since!
DD is 14, bats right, and is a solid .300 hitter. She's also fast-3.0 home to first. General consensus is she should be hitting from the left side now...I guess because she's fast?
Why would a player switch to the left side? Only benefit I could see for DD is she's a few feet closer to 1st.
My worry is the team will lose a perfectly good hitter for most of the year (or longer?) while she makes the transition and she will not have much fun!
Pros and cons.for switching?
