Now, why would Jackson steal second if he's pitching? Couldn't remember the name of the leadoff guy for Tampa. He just stole third. That would be Ex-Cub Sam Fuld.

Which is the grindiest:
1) Stealing a base. 2) Taking a pitch to let the guy steal 3) Taking a HBP to get on base even though a teammate is stealing, thus negating a stolen base attempt

I think that rules that one out, as you are actually undermining someone else's grindiness, especially if they see it happen and pull up without even going through with their slide (so no dirty uniform even). You lose some of your own grindiness if you do something that gets in the way of another's.

Well, then that begs the question: is the grindiness of taking a HBP greater than the non-grindiness of taking away an SB attempt?

We'd need to factor in "intent" factor. If player made little attempt to get out of the way of said pitch, that's a plus, you are taking it for the team. If he clearly was trying to get out of the way of the pitch (diving all over the place like a non-grindy puss), that's a negative.
There's clearly a lot of calculating to be done. Meanwhile, I love how the cell looks on MLB Gameday.

Jeter, I suggest that you walk up to Beckham and tell him that his grindiness might be lacking.
