So that is why bunting is stupid

 

No, that is why sacrifice bunts that aren't executed well are stupid.

even with 100% well executed bunts, its not worth it

 

i'm gonna stop following this game on gameday, its lame and boring and if we lose it'll piss me off and if we win i wont care that much

 

good luck guys

If it had been done perfectly it would have been almost as stupid

It's stupid to even try. 2 straight hits, fell behind Marquis. Theriot hitting .336 and is red hot. No reason for him to be bunting.

Giving away outs in the 5th is always stupid.

no, bunting with your #2 hitter is stupid. or, having a #2 hitter who you'd rather bunt with in that situation is stupid.

 

That makes no sense. Bunting with your #2 hitter - essentially trying to put 2 runners in scoring position for your 2 best hitters is stupid knowing full well this game may be called very soon?

I can't believe that there's a chance Estes could beat us today. Sickening.

You can thank Marquis for that.

Slightly more runs expected with runners on 1st and 2nd with no outs than runners at 2nd and 3rd with 1 out.

Reducing your chances of scoring runs is stupid, yes.

0-8 from the heart of the lineup against shawn estes. bang up work guys.

 

and kudos to jason marquis for letting the worst-hitting team in the majors knock him around for five innings.
