Acta on OBA
Via Capitol Punishment, a great quote by Manny Acta on on-base average in a story about Nick Johnson's comeback:
"Nick, even when Soriano was here, was the most productive player we had because of his on-base percentage," Acta said. "That prolongs innings, prolongs games. It wins games. It's huge. He has so much value for us."
There's lots of other good stories at the CP link.

I've seen several interviews with Manny Acta where he says that you score more runs by getting more people on base. Seems like simple logic, but he's one of the few managers that actually gets it. Deez Nats are in good hands.
