ThunderBolt Posted April 9, 2010 Share Posted April 9, 2010 QUOTE (greg775 @ Apr 8, 2010 -> 11:53 PM) 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.

SoxFan1 Posted April 9, 2010 Share Posted April 9, 2010 QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Apr 8, 2010 -> 10:52 PM) Do you actually think the Indians have more speed than the Sox? Are you high? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All managers bunt in that situation. Believe it. 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? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greg775 Posted April 9, 2010 Share Posted April 9, 2010 To me, it was the exact same situation. Gordon Beckham isn't Mickey Mantle (yet) and Juan Pierre isn't Rickey Henderson. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gordon Beckham isn't Mickey Mantle (yet) and Juan Pierre isn't Rickey Henderson. I suggest you look at some stats and reflect on why bunting with Lou Marson and Gordon Beckham are two very different things. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
