Mike Scioscia

Did you know that Scioscia's teams enjoy bunting, and advancing the man from second to third, and taking the extra base? It's a shame that Scioscia's style of play has been so ignored by the media - you'd never know it from the commentary of baseball experts like Tom Brennaman, but the Angels are so unique that you might say there is a kind of "Angels baseball" that differentiates them from everyone else. Their prospects are required to bunt and hit-and-run throughout the minor league system, for God's sake! I hope this neglected genius gets discovered, and quick.
