The guys behind EM weren't very adept at scoring him. 27.5% of the time. Didn't find anyone else less than 30.
So what? Martinez isn't clairvoyant. He doesn't know ahead of time if this will be one if the 27% or one of the 73%. Short of a home run, all he can do is get on base and hope for the best. Getting on base, with a hit or a walk, helps the team.
Are you saying he's so dumb that he didn't realize he was ending a lot of innings standing on a bag?
As opposed to ending them walking back to the dugout after making an out?
You. Are. Retarded.
Why does he have to walk or make an out? Can't he hit at all?
Dumb. *******. ***.
Sure. Roughly 30% of the time it will be a hit. Want to guess where he will be standing after most of those hits? First base, the exact same place he winds up after a walk.
What the next hitter does or doesn't do is irrelevant when evaluating Martinez's performance.
