But I'd guess we're at or very near the top of the league in dumbass base running mistakes. And a lot of that is coaching. Bench a player's butt for a couple games every time he screws up running bases and it will slow way down.

I get and believe in the aggressive baseball approach. But there's a line somewhere there between aggressive and stupid. And we get into the stupid end way to much!!

I saw a caught in run down highlight somewhere? To be honest I'm not even sure now that I think about it what game it even was? But still, waayyyy to many screw ups on base paths by this team. We could literally probably add 3 or 4 wins if we didn't run ourselves out of the game. Maybe more??

It was the bottom of 8 in a tie game with 2 outs. No need to be stupid like that giving them possibly an extra out extending the inning because the next guy somehow would manage to get a hit and put TB in the lead.
