Keith Law chat highlights

[Fella]

I think his point is that statistically your chance of scoring a run is always lower after an out then before it unless a run directly scores, which is very true. Sure some outs are better than others and you have to value guys who make contact because thats almost always better than a strikeout,. He kinda put it poorly but the idea is that the old baseball traditions of sac bunting runners to 2nd or purposely trying to ground out to 2nd to get a guy to 3rd really aren't productive. Unless you're the pitcher you should always try to get a hit rather than giving yourself up as a "productive out"
