Cleveland Indians' Tyler Naquin will try to lay off high hard one in his second season

GOODYEAR, Ariz. -- Every baseball player has a to do list headed into a new season. At the top of Tyler Naquin's list is one thing -- stop swinging at the high fastball.

Naquin knows that. He lived through it last year and it still bothers him for one reason.

"Ninety five percent of those pitches were balls," said Naquin.

Naquin's 2016 season was a good one. He finished third in the AL Rookie of the Year voting and helped the Indians win the AL Central, AL pennant and reach Game 7 of the World Series.
