He's the best.

The thing is they had the roster to run a bit, or mimic running to keep the pitchers on their toes. It is such an under rated and under utilized skill across MLB. Seeing AA and the Braves utilize it is nice. When they're not hitting or running it really pisses the fans off because they're just doing nothing but hoping for the best. They have to work and think about things actively instead of passive bums. So aggravated having to witness this nonsense all season.
