TOOTBLAN: Manny Machado’s Kryptonite

Manny Machado has dominated the season to date both at the plate and in the field with the glove. The numbers are so impressive that the MVP title is his to lose right now in the American League. Can he do anything wrong? His baserunning may be his only Achilles heal right now.

Last year, Manny Machado put together an impressive season with twenty stolen bases. However, this season he has been thrown out on the bases three times including last night. Last evening, Machado was caught at second base stranding a runner at third with Chris Davis at the plate.
