Hindsight is always 20/20 and you never know until you are past the moment. That hold true for agreeing and realizing you left some at the table or holding strong and then watching the economy tank.
All you can do is take an educated guess when it is time for a decision and not look back on what if.
They made the correct decision at the time, imo. The changes to their work rules would have cost them a lot of money. I am not sure if many of them see that or just remember the pay change.

Depends on the pitcher, what field you are playing in (Mile High is good for the long ball), where the pitcher is in his throw history, etc.
I know what you are getting at, and there is truth to it. I just fear that we may be looking for a single in section six with we should be looking for extra bases. I want the singles to occur in LOA's leading up to section six with at least a standing double if not a triple if we are looking for a quick deal.
Anyone would take the home run! Duh! It may be possible, and as you have stated there are many factors that will result in the batting coaches instructions when it is our turn at the plate. I just do not want to see us selling anything short looking for a sure thing. We always have three outs in an inning. You generally use the first and or second out for the long ball. The third out is when you play hit and run.

You are paid the greater of min day credit, or actual credit at the end of the month.....
I agree it should be the same for both. Add to it, leg by leg cancellation pay. Not by trip. That goes for reserves too !

I would guess the 5:15/day, no exceptions would fix it.
However, they just came up with a new one - 0040 report, turn around and come back the next day at 0900 east coast time and only pays 10 hours so technically it's only a 2 day. Don't know how to fix that one.
