how do you guys approach beating the shift? I'm not doing as well as i'd like with some players, namely Anthony Rizzo, flashback Ben Zobrist, and flashback Carlos Santana. I'm a horrible oppo hitter, I can honestly say I only do it on accident.

should I just power swing and hope for homers or bust? do I start laying down the cheesy bunts that roll halfway down to 3rd base and die? any advice is welcome. I'm still hitting .270 and higher with these guys but I feel like they would all be doing much much better if it weren't for the shift.
