Two things.
First, being top three in shots attempts from home plate does not disprove the assertion that the Flames under Gulutzan were a 'shoot from anywhere' team. Not only are those not mutually exclusive, but if the team is the latter, you would actually expect the former to also be high.
Second, it's a little rich to complain about narrative given how some are holding onto Corsi as a crutch to try and handwave away the incompetence of the system and how the stats demonstrated just how awful it was.
