Verlander cuts thru the twinkies 1-2-3 like a hot knife thru butter....

Its only stupid when it doesn't work.

I just don't understand running your catcher.. It is not like AA is very fast... If there is no contact he is a dead duck Jimmy......Some moves are really puzzling.

If there is no contact the batter failed big time.

You don't have to be fast to go on a hit and run, but the batter has to make contact.

I understand the hit and run.. But not with your catcher and not with a player who has been struggling the last 14 games. he tried it with a struggling guillien and it backfired also..

Eeek that was a fail....then Kelly singles, of course..

Agreed, the way we have been lately, we might as well try to play some small ball.

God knows nothing else has worked.

A lot of managers like to hit and run with a struggling player.
