I know that he has some bad moments and is sometimes in Bobby's doghouse, but sometimes Escobar shows some real baseball intelligence.  He threw out a Marlin who wasn't paying attention.  He has taken bases when players lost focus.  Once in a spring training game he deliberately dropped a soft liner in order to try to start a double play.  The umpire started chewing him out for it.  He's the kind of guy that would get you with a hidden ball trick.  I dig that about him.
