Grittybeard posted:I might have missed people talking about this yesterday but here's the most over-zealous quote about speed I can imagine: Who was the guy on the Red Sox in 2004 that everyone knew was going to steal second and still went like 7/8 when used as a pinch runner? Guys like that might not be super valuable in a 162 game season but in a best of 7 series where small sample size rules all their value is immense. If it's a close game they can turn it around and if it's not then whoever you left off the roster to keep him wasn't going to change anything.

Did you mean Delmon Young here? I'm not sure Nelson Cruz can have Playoff Bullshit considering he's actually good in the regular season too.

FairGame posted:They'd certainly try. Adam wainwright and lance Lynn are both ridiculously hard to steal off of though. How much of that is Yadi, though? I'd imagine as long as a pitcher is average-above average in holding runners then that's enough with him behind the plate.
