It isn't like these guys play 2 games a week or anything. They gain enough minor injuries and "wear and tear" as it is over the season. The case might be different for a bench player or some youngster, but I can't bash someone like Manny Ramirez for not running hard on a groundball that would get him thrown out 99% of the time in the big leagues. Yes, it looks bad if he's not on second base after an outfielder makes an error on a shallow flyball, but there's a difference between hustling and being stupid. These guys do have to protect themselves. The idea of going hard on every single play sounds wonderful but it's not realistic.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3569103123926136841.post-90792920320594593642008-10-24T12:00:00.000-07:002008-10-24T12:00:00.000-07:00Dog says that for the fist time in a while we have...Dog says that for the fist time in a while we have a World Series. There's a 100% chance of rain in Philly tomorrow and MLB will look to call that game early to avoid a Saturday night game and Play Sunday b/c there's no NFL this Sunday night.KBillyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10204189643490253188noreply@blogger.com
