elrockinMT Posted August 22, 2010 Share Posted August 22, 2010 QUOTE (greg775 @ Aug 22, 2010 -> 09:32 PM) Yes with man on in eighth and none out, why not bunt him over? Then you have 2 chances for clutch hit. I understand what you are saying there, but I would think using Pierre's speed might be better or at least hit and run and use his speed and Vizquel's ability to make contact Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we're giving up runs on the basepaths I like that better than the Kotsay straight steal we saw earlier. Or the AJ bunt attempt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then you have 2 chances for clutch hit. Because percentage wise a runner will score from from first w/ none out more often than a runner at second with one out. Look, you can keep sucking Ozzie's knob but we're going to keep calling you out for your idiocy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Balta1701 Posted August 22, 2010 Share Posted August 22, 2010 QUOTE (WinorDie88 @ Aug 22, 2010 -> 04:34 PM) Butler's going deep. Butler's not that great of a "power" hitter. He'd fit well as a cog in our lineup because we have a lot of HR power already and a HR ballpark, but he's a doubles hitter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Might have, but we never saw the good pre-surgery Liriano. We saw him in 2005 when he was first called up, but never faced him when he was starting during his lights out season.

Mid 90s heat, high 80s change, low 80s slider. Same pitches actually. Hopefully they have different careers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
