I disagree that Reyes&quot; steals at the top of the order make it a lot easier for the power hitters to knock him in. On any of their extra bases, which they hit a lot of, Reyes could score from first with his speed. So, his SBs aren&quot;t helping the team. In front of a singles hitter like Lo Duca, Reyes stealing a base puts him on 2B, which makes it a lot easier to score on a Lo Duca hit, which certainly won&quot;t be for extra bases. Along the same lines, having Lo Duca sac bunt Reyes over to 2B for the #3 hitter does not help.
