Weiss sees benefit of increase in shifts

Weiss liked the results.

"The numbers showed we returned more ground balls and outs percentage-wise," Weiss said during media availability on Monday at the Winter Meetings. "That's the bottom line for me. Are we turning a higher percentage of ground balls into outs? It helps to have -- if you have one guy on one side of the infield, it's nice for that guy to be [third baseman] Nolan Arenado because he covers so much ground and can finish just about any play that he gets to. So that's a nice luxury to have.
