Somebody said Manny Acta wouldn't bunt.

The exact f***ing same thing.

All managers bunt in that situation. Believe it.

There is a profound difference between bunting with Lou Marson and bunting with Gordon Beckham.

The bottom half of your order with a guy not named Juan Pierre is different than the top half of your order with a stolen base threat at 1b.

 

Would Acta have taken the bat out of Sizemore's hands if Cabrera got a leadoff walk?

To me, it was the exact same situation.

Gordon Beckham isn't Mickey Mantle (yet) and Juan Pierre isn't Rickey Henderson.

 

And Lou Marson isn't even Gordon Beckham.

I suggest you look at some stats and reflect on why bunting with Lou Marson and Gordon Beckham are two very different things.
