4 hours ago4 hr Grichuk has been an insanely good pickup. Kudos to Getz for not resting on his laurels and getting the LHP killer.
4 hours ago4 hr So many on here panned the grichuk signing. Can't believe I am saying this, but another getz gem

4 hours ago4 hr Author I would think that a baseball player not carrying his favorite piano to 1st base with him legs that out. Dromo needs to run laps after the game.

It's why nobody really does it anymoreI go back and forth on it. I think there's def still situations where it makes sense even if the analytics say it doesn't.

It's why nobody really does it anymoreWhat if Meidroth hit into a GIDP and then they don't score 2 in the inning? Run expectancy numbers aren't meaningless, but they are limited by only considering outs and baserunners broadly rather than matchups, contact profiles, the on deck batter, etc.There are guys who should never bunt, but Chase is likelier than average to pull a ball on the ground so I get it in that specific spot.
