Exactly. WTF does he expect to gain out of that? It's just ****ing stupid.

Head-In-Ass syndrome has been a problem all season long thus far.

WTF Cain?!?! Did you get a lobotomy in the off season?? That's one of the dumbest f***ing things I've seen in a long time. He's scoring from second on almost any base hit, so why would you chance it there?!?

Dumbs**t.

i would put him on the bench for that.

Actually shows how little faith at least Lorenzo Cain has in his teammates ability to hit w RISP

Amazing how unfundamental we are right now. Been playing this game most of their lives.

So not only did you run yourself out of an inning...
You ran yourself out of a scoring chance AND you leave K-Mo to lead off the next inning...


:facepalm:

But it doesn't matter though. Stranded at 2nd or stranded at 3rd.

Now watch the 13th ranked, NL offense score this guy with 1 out

The difference in odds of scoring from 2nd and scoring from 3rd on base hit is minimal

Chill. It's only May 2. No need to freak out yet. I'm going to give it another week.

Okay, time to let it go. Cain is still awesome. We love him.

This is starting to smell like the classic Royals April-May losing streak where we go like 2-14 and then at the end of July go "if we had just kept that losing streak to 4-12..."

I don't think it's any individual player right now. Just overall philosophy and/or attitude.

Half the roster hasn't paid attention to Ned's screaming and yelling.

Yeah, I agree with that. My point is Cain clearly liked his chances of drawing a throwing error or a WP more than he likes them of Morales getting a hit.
