Exactly. The fact that so many people have criticized Timmy is amazing to me. Not a lot of baseball smarts here. 

Tim was just a step or two past first base. Why wouldn't he go halfway at least to second? It was asking for trouble.

I was actually thinking that.  There's been a few times they looked like they knew an offspeed pitch was coming with 2 strikes.  

They hit like shit everywhere else, roll into Comiskey 2, and suddenly its batting practice.

Because he was tagging up. If the LF catches that with his back against the wall, Anderson tags and is at second base. If it’s a home run, he scores anyway. It was a smart play.

Because it was high enough that Tim figured it was either gone or caught and if it was caught he was tagging and if it was gone he didnt need to be anywhere.

If a runner is passed on the bases, barring someone sprinting backwards, it is almost always the fault of the trail runner.

He doesn't have overpowering stuff anymore.  His command is typically superb.  With that said, by all means...if some team values him now, ship him off.

Same with Colome please.
