...and none of it from bunting.  I'm just saying...

There's only one way to get over these bunting problems. Paul Molitor has to go crazy. Everybody bunts on every at-bat, until they get it right... OR NO SUPPER! 

 

Well, that's what I'd do, anyway.

i thought chris sale was the twins bitch. can a bad team have two very good bitches?

Sale was last year. Trouble is, we may only see Hamels once more this year whereas we faced Sale about six times.

Why?  It was a 'run on contact' play.  Eddie did what he was told to do.

Glynn's mistake resulted in Suzuki's out, Molitor's mistake (or wrong guess) resulted in Rosario's out. We can't afford that.

IF in...sharply hit ground ball right to the SS...even if he had a green light to go he has react to the play in front of him. Its like blaming a coach for a player getting picked off 1B. Sure he may have had the green light to steal but you have to know the situation.

Do you not understand what "run on contact" means?  Ball get's hit, you run.  Sometimes, **** happens.

Until now I didn't but thanks for the clarification....Like I said the player has discretion. You freeze on a line drive, if the ball is hit sharply to 3B or SS, or if the pitcher fields it. We learned that in LL and it carried all the way through college...
