On Scroggins, there is another article from him where he says that on tour, most if not all lefties must play the 5 to the gutter to succeed. Why you ask? Because on most of the patterns, the righties are moving left as the lane transitions throughout the block, and by the end of burn squads, there is no head oil for the lefties to use except outside 5. When you see the righties lofting the channel looking for oil, the lefties will not find any moving right.
He struggled at nationals a bit last year with the all lefty teams because they had to move in (like a right hander usually does) and he hadn't done it in years and wasn't prepared. (ok, no nose bleed jokes).
