too bad he chose to bunt. A team's 2nd best hitter doesn't usually do that.

fricking pathetic, if JHey swings away and strikes out it's still the same crying only this time about JHey not bunting.

, I'll let you do the math. I like my chances getting the runner in from 3rd with less than 2 outs more than I do a runner in from 2nd with none.


2nd with no outs: 1.0499 runs
3rd with one out: .8939 runs

One run probability is probably better than run expectancy in this case.

2nd with no outs: 60.9% chance of a run
3rd with one out: 64.8% chance of a run

Lineup position specific it says
2nd with no outs: 60.6% chance of a run
3rd with one out: 65.3% chance of a run

Historical data says it is a good move, but I disagree with it in this case. No way should a lefty be bunting off Marmol with a worse right handed hitter on deck.

How about your leadoff all world hitter learn how to bunt, Joe Simpson hit it on the head when he said it was one of the worst techniques he'd ever seen.

You guys just look for shite to bitch about with Fredi, at some point players need to execute the small things when called upon.

I have something to bitch about...the a-hole that was in charge of the stream I was watching last night changed the channel to fricking ancient aliens in the bottom of the 9th.

I'm just going to assume he fell asleep and his wife was the one searching through the guide. Plenty of stops at House Hunters and other random things before finally stopping at ancient aliens.

#Braves have traded INF Tyler Greene to the Padres in exchange for a player to be named later. Greene was with AAA Gwinnett.

The free game of the day feed on mlb.tv was no better. It didn't hardly play from the 8th inning on.
