Cingrani can apparently do it all. He's actually doing quite well for me at 8-4 and 2.60 ERA. But, check this out:

Game 34: steals 2nd base with 1 out in the 3rd:

Game 94: steals 2nd base with 2 out in the 3rd, then again with 2 outs in the 7th!

The guys at bat (Genett and Yelich) during the steals are both selected to not H&R.
Yelich is set to not sacrifice bunt
My team stealing strategy is set at "conservative"

So, according to baseball reference, Cingrani did swipe a base last year, but three is quite a bonus. Not sure how I would have felt if he had been _caught_ three times! But, as it turns out, he never scored after his steals, so nothing came of it, just thought it was kind of interesting. Anyone else got some steals out of Cingrani?

I asked him to take a case of beer for me from the clubhouse after a game once. He's a heckuva guy!
