I'm not talking about guys that are only on rosters to be pinch runners. Obviously I'm talking about two players that are both good enough to be starters. You are twisting the pinch runner comment in your head. The point I am trying to make and you agreed with yourself is that once the two players are on first base the speed player becomes more valuable than the slow player. I brought up the PR because it proves that the manager values speed. To not value speed is just sabermetrics being ruhhhhtarded again.
