Nobody really expected the Mariners to be any good this year, and so far, Seattle hasn’t done anything to alter that perception.

However, some teams still give bumbling baserunners the go-ahead, and in the Year of the Stolen Base, even more players are attempting the 90-yard dash. Brewers manager Ron Roenicke brings an aggressive baserunning strategy to the dugout, but is he running Milwaukee out of games? Larry Granillo checks in with the Brew Crew and teams around the NL Central to see whether some managers would be better off throwing up the stop sign.
