Okay, cut it out, Lloyd
After seeing it in action on Tuesday in person, I had to check the stats. At this point the Pirates are second in the league in team caught stealing, a fact made only more bile raising by the fact that the first place team, while five CS ahead of them, is over 35 successful steals ahead of them as well. It's a cruel joke at this point with the Pirates that once someone gets on when they're down two runs, the hit and run is on, and the catcher can just throw to second. I'm still not a big fan of McClendon anyway, but could you please pay attention to what you're doing, Lloyd. You can't steal first (that's "you" meaning the general person, I understand you're a special case), and the hit and run depends on players that can hit and/or run. We don't have either. Remember that last year our leading base stealer was Kevin Young!
This reminds me, I've got to make sure the Incompetence Central league uses caught stealing as a stat next year.
