In the lectures, we discussed the following sabermetric estimates: a marginal stolen base creates 0.16 runs; getting caught stealing has a marginal effect of -0.38 runs. Assume that the current runner on first has been successful in 63.4% of his historical stolen base attempts. Should we have this runner steal? Explain.
