I am not saying we become a bunting team, but thats one thing Augie made damn sure that every, single, starter knew how to put down a bunt in the warm up first 4 weeks of the season. there were numerous times he sent a .400 hitter up with 1 or 2 on early in a game and told them to bunt. and if they failed, he would keep telling them to bunt until they laid one down corretly.
he knew there was going to be a point in June that they needed to move two guys on first and second ahead 90 feet, and he made damn sure everyone from his boom-sticker to his base stealing specialist all fucking knew how to lay down a semi-respectable bunt.
instead we got
Jeff. Jalin... same same...
trying to do something other than be an 90% guaranteed out. (and 8 of the other 10% being him getting a walk)
only to fail in such spectacular fashion, that if the Meep Meep pitcher had a fucking brain, he would have dropped the free pop up bunt on the ground and done a double or triple play by dropping it throwing to 3rd, and hope they ran the wheel around to first.... with Jalin half assing it to first after he thought he was out on a pop bunt.
that comes from not having some fucking experience earlier in the season putting down a bunt
