Hard to say because comparisons are almost impossible. IF, big if, but if he were to reach those levels then he's inner circle HOF I'd think (as long as no major scandal with him happens). Bond's...

I think it could be Minter for the 1st inning. He's done it before in the playoffs with success and the Phillies roll out Bryce and Schwarber in the 1st usually. Then you could roll with Elder in the...

Agreed. Which is exactly part of the argument I’ve been making. Analytics changed the game for SBs. Teams in the 70s and 80s had no idea they were running at a negative EV a lot of times so they had...

I guess to be consistent we need to take the position that the 130 SBs by Rickey in 82 shouldn’t count. Analytics weren’t around to tell him his success rate of 75.5% that year was negative EV so he...

I know it’s not constant but it’s not directly correlated to attempts either. The greatest base stealer of all time was inconsistent in success rate which had very little to nothing with his amount...

I hate myself for getting back in this because but you're picking and choosing what you want to see.
Rickey's success rate didn't always correlate to attempts. In fact, it rarely did. In 1980 he...

This shouldn’t be held against him in this conversation. He’s just running at pre-2010 rates. If you want to hold his increased success rate against him then ok. Put him at his career rate prior to...

Freddie has been incredibly consistent for several years now. Acuna has matched him this year though.

He won’t. He’d have to hit 9 more in 17 games. That’s doable but he’s already been on an absolute heater the last 10 games. He’s hit 8 HR in his last 10 games which gives him 8 for the month of...
