Why does Cueto keep trying to bunt for a hit with no one on?

 

Force a Lester throw

The chances of him laying down a perfect bunt that he could beat out have to be significantly lower than running into a fastball with a swing, so keep it up.

 

I don't think he wants to beat it out, I think he only wants to bunt well enough that Lester fields it and can't run it to the base. It's not all that high a percentage play, but he's a career .108 hitter so not much to risk.

good thinking Smoltz, teams should just pitch around half the lineup, why didn't they think of that 6 months ago

 

I wonder what he thinks about any other teams 5-8. You have to figure he thought "this is stupid" before finishing his brainfart.
