All that may be true, but Weeks has been putrid. I would walk Braun all day long to get to Weeks, 2 guys on or not, putting the winning run on or not. In fact, I see no reason, under almost any circumstance to ever pitch to Braun, knowing that Weeks is next, especially with 2 outs. It isn't like Rickie is having good at bats, he is flailing, and flailing hard. Looks like he is completely lost, with no end in sight. The fact that Weeks keeps hitting 4th is questionable on so many levels.
