Reds Minor League player on pace for 170+ steals

[Muhast]

So this guy can FLY. They timed him down the first base line at 3.4 seconds. Some of the fastest guys barely crack 4.0 seconds. He hit a inside the park homerun and rounded the bases in 13.9 seconds.

The record for steals in a season is 145, he's on pace for 173.

He had 103 through the all-star break.

Crazy lol.

I checked out some bases he stole and it looks like little league. He's so fast it looks like he's covering 60 feet instead of 90.

Pretty cool.

They have the hardest throwing arm in Aroldis Chapman.

Now they have the fastest base runner in Billy Hamilton.

Pretty cool.

Chapman is real interesting. He has an electric arm, no question, but he has issues off the field that are not insignificant. I hope he figures it out.

He won't be a minor leaguer for long

 

[ABQCOWBOY]

He won't be a minor leaguer for long

Which one?

If Billy Hamilton, I think you are correct Yeags. He will be in the Bigs before to long. I think Cincy might just make room for him at SS.

If Aroldis Chapman, I still think your right. Penal League if he's not careful.

My apologies for forgetting to put his name in the original post.

Glad you guys knew who I was talking about. He is flying around the bases lol.

Reportedly he ran a 4.5 40 as a 15 year old at a football camp. So I'm guessing he's a 4.3 type of guy now.

I read an article on him that said he once scored from tagging on third on a pop fly to the 2nd baseman.

Wow.

 

[Biggems]

you know, he wont be breaking any stolen base records if he continues to turn singles into inside the park homeruns:laugh1:
