Ok so maybe that isn’t news to any of you. Based on all of this hype and the fact that he stole over 100 bases in a Minor League season… twice. He even holds the minor league record with 155 steals in a season. He is the next Vince Coleman.
But due to his horrible, awful, incredibly dismal start to 2014, he hasn’t been able to flash that speed…
Until today.
I mean, who tags up on a fly ball just over 2B, and is safe. I think I read somewhere he ran from a dead stop at 3B to home in 3.2 seconds. If we were having a Stolen Base Derby, Billy Hamilton would be the only choice in Group A.
