More than anything, I wanted an OBP bat. They didn't get that. But Erceg was a guy I was very excited about so the bullpen just got a LOT better. I've argued that the best way to improve the bullpen is to take pressure off the existing guys, who all do just fine when they aren't in a pressure situation. I wanted to do that with more runs, but maybe shifting them all down and letting Harvey and Erceg do most of the heavy lifting will work

Love the insight into Vinnie's decision to go to second and the fact that this is more than a smart player making a smart play, it's an institutionalized decision.

Now I need to see someone run through 2nd base to to prevent a double play (instead of sliding 10 feet from the base!) in order to get a run home.
