Leaving Shea now...[censored] Pretty sure I will die without ever hearing a good excuse for why Reyes and Castillo didn't take 2nd and 3rd with Beltran up with no defender within 40 feet of them.

Because they were afraid of gettign thrown out... AGAIN. They didnt show the defensive allignment on TV but unless they were GIVING them the bases I dont think this was a stealing spot. Myers walks too many people, too likely to move the runners up on his own, and with Wright batting the risk/reward ratio isn't good enough. Then with Beltran batting you make the AB even more meanigful, which naturally would reduce the chance of success (lol)
