Does anyone really care if it bounces and rolls 48 yards or if it goes 48 yards in the air? Sure, you can call it a lucky bounce that may or may not be there every time, but those slow rollers are not the ones that produce big returns. ON the contrary, those line drives are the ones that make me nervous, as it gives them plenty of time to set up a good return.

I'm not arguing with you, Santiago has sucked these past 2 weeks. I just think for whatever reason he was much more effective this week.
