Message: [QUOTE="superjohn, post: 5309666, member: 1522"] It has nothing to do with stolen bases or speed. Posada didn't know how to run the bases, he didn't have the instincts for it. He would get caught between them, he couldn't judge if balls would be caught, he had no real sense of what was happening when he was on the base path. There were times where the base runner at the base behind him would have to slow up so they wouldn't pass him on the base path. The total opposite of Jeter. Jeter wasn't a speedster but he was a brilliant base runner. [/QUOTE]
