"I just go up there and hit," Odor said. "I don't worry about where they put me. I just do my job."
Manager Jeff Banister said the move was designed so that Odor could be more "hitterish." That's code for using all your hitting skills rather than just trying to crush the ball. It's like a pitcher using all his pitches rather than just trying to throw hard.
"I'm just seeing the ball better," Odor said. "That's just something I feel, I don't know how to explain it. I always try to hit the ball hard, no matter who is pitching.
