[QUOTE="Squints, post: 308193, member: 822"] To give you an actual answer from my POV, the sacrifice bunt is simply a tool. There are certain situations where it can be good strategy to employ it. There's no doubt about that. I think someone who disagrees with that is pushing the point too far. But just like any tool if you're using it outside those situations it is more likely to hinder you. And with the team we have those situations do not come up particularly often. Your pitching staff will play into the whole cost-benefit analysis but I don't think it should play a major role. We seem to use it as a foundation of our offensive philosophy instead of just a tool. Which is frustrating because it is out of touch with current trends in the sport and doesn't jive with our current offensive roster. [/QUOTE]
