even after you remove every bit of saberstats from the discussion, saying there is not a situation where sac bunting is the right choice is totally wrong anyway.
scenario on "When You Should and Shouldn't Bunt":
runner on 2B, 0 outs, pitcher at the plate in the bottom of extra innings and you have no pinch-hitters left, you have a relief piicher batting who is say 0-100 career, you cant tell me your going to waste an at-bat and let him see if he can get a hit to move the runner on 2B over to third. No, your going to have him bunt down 1B way, then take your chances with a runner on 3B w/1 out and hope to either get a hit to win the game, or even a deep sac fly.
next thing you know, people will be saying theres never a situation where sac fly is the right choice too
