    I don't believe Straw has particularly good SB instincts

    Ugh. 2-0, Maldy w/ good numbers against Manaea, just needed a ball into the outfield. I get it, let him swing away. Just didn't take advantage.

    Exactly

    The A's execute well in tight, clutch situations.

    The Stros are just OK in these situations.

    No I dont have the numbers to back this up.
