Sean Casey has grounded into three Double Plays this season. He always was ahead in the count when he hit the ball. Everytime i would have sent the runner on first.
So I wondered is there a formula to determine when you should sent the runner on a certain hitter (with a "Hit & Run Count")
This formula would contain something like K/AB, GIDP/AB, Groundball Rate etc.
I would like to focus on the hitter here. So we know when hitters like Casey, Pudge or A.J. Pierzynski are up with a runner on first a Hit & Run might be in order.
Any Ideas?
