Right now I will subscribe to the theory that stealing a base is bad
Because, down 5, we more than just 1 or 2 runs.

Moves the pitcher's spot from 5th next inning...
...to 7th. That’s a pretty small advantage, though it might make the difference between being able to use Hennessey for 2 innings vs bringing in another reliever.

Also Eckstein is supposed to be likable just for his grit or whatever, Byrnes is allegedly likable because he’s both gritty AND goofy! what a character!

Byrnes is more obnoxious than annoying
Eckstein is annoying because of all of the fluffy positive press attention that he gets. Plus, he sucks a whole lot more. Byrnes at least has some good baseball abilities, despite the bathtub crank. I’m probably splitting hairs.

Uribe is signed for this year only, right? Yes, I’d do that. He can fill in all over the IF (including SS), and maybe Bocock can be pinch hit for once in awhile.

Is there really any point in keeping him and Aurilia around? Even if they start hitting (which they won’t), it’s not like the Giants will actually trade them or get anything in return for them.

FunFact
I’m only following the game in passing, since I’m busy-ish with work, but I was flabbergasted enough with the Durham-Velez switch that I was wondering how helpful moving the pitcher back two spots in the lineup would be, really. The results….not very.
Ray Durham’s average this year: .200.
Brad Hennessey’s career average: .225.
Thanks for the great strategy, Bochy!
