Stolen bases

i don't know about flat out steals but hit and runs more often would be nicec

Hit and runs and steals are both double edged swords.  They can be an integral part of the game, like when Dave Roberts stole second in the Red Sox win over the Yankees in the playoffs.  Or they can be a gut wrenching blow like when the Angels blew the game last night on a failed steal.

It is much akin to the patience that Wilkerson shows at the plate.  Called third strikes are one of the hardest things to watch as a fan.  However, because of last season, I think a called third strike by Wilkerson will overshadow much of what he does well.  Washington could just as equally see his own demise in the eyes of the fans and the press.  I am not saying that it will happen, but you never know.

It has only been four games, so we really don't know what Washington's style is like.  I'd much rather see a prudent use of the steal (in the right situations and by the right players) than stealing bases just for the sake of stealing bases.

today they had a knuckleballer on the mound, get a good jump, easy steals, no brainer.
