My understanding, unless it has changed recently, is that the "sabremetricians" determined a long time ago that most of the time it isn't optimal to sac bunt. I remember Bill James running numbers back in the day on even the use of pitchers sac bunting all of the time and he determined that at best the strategy was a "wash" even for them.
