With the shift, if I actually make a left handed hitter hit 'my pitch', he'll get a slow rolling double down by the third baseline with David Bell forcing the third baseman to play SS because he has more faith in their hitter than he does in my pitching. Instead of a routine groundball to third base, I'm now in trouble strictly because of our style of play. Most of what I would have learned to get to that level would have to get thrown out.
Basically, under David Bell, you're just an athlete that's asked to perform tasks instead of just being a baseball player.
I am in no way shape or form comparing myself to Greg Maddux, but this is exactly what I was talking about as to why the shift wouldn't work with my style of pitching.
