Let's not even joke about that. I went to the game last night and had to watch Vlad Guerrero manage the lead part of a double steal. At one point, Ron Washington came out to argue he should be allowed to move his first base coach to second.

My fantasy team is currently reaping the benefits of speedster Nelson Cruz racking up three steals, I'm certainly not complaining.
If only the Rangers were ballsy enough to steal home. That might've won them the game.
