I think the rationale for stealing is simple. Guzzie hits singles. He can score from second and he was never thrown out last night.
because we are a bullcrap team. why should we have to accept this garbage?

It would be one thing if we were struggling as an offense and Morgan was trying to create a spark by forcing the issue and trying to steal every time on but the guys behind him are all on fire and we just cannot afford for him to get thrown out. Sure, it's nice to swipe a bag but it is generally not worth the risk, especially under the current circumstances.

He's batting .360. Getting on base at the clip he is doing is a job well done. Don't blow it by making unnecessary big outs on the bases.
