Whitewashed in '05 Posted August 6, 2005 Share Posted August 6, 2005 QUOTE(fathom @ Aug 6, 2005 -> 12:45 PM) Where's Jose Reyes and Joey Gathright? What about Konerko??!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kalapse Posted August 6, 2005 Share Posted August 6, 2005 Eric Byrnes gotta love those 37 career SBs and 4 this year. Not to mention Omar Vizquel who over the past 5 seasons at most has had at most 19 SBs in the given time frame. Get Jose Reyes and Scott Podsednik in there. Reyes is widely considered the fastest player in baseball and Podsednik leads the majors in SBs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fathom Posted August 6, 2005 Share Posted August 6, 2005 Reyes and Gathright are the two fastest players in baseball, and it's not even close. Other guys who supposedly are incredibly fast are Patterson, Wily Mo Pena, and minor leaguer Esix Snead. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nitetrain8601 Posted August 6, 2005 Share Posted August 6, 2005 QUOTE(fathom @ Aug 6, 2005 -> 02:58 PM) Justin Upton is faster than BJ Upton. I don't know, my TB friends say that it's BJ that's faster than Gathright. Maybe he's still slower than Justin Upton is. I have no idea. I know one of the Uptons are supposedly faster than Gathright though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe he's still slower than Justin Upton is. I have no idea. I know one of the Uptons are supposedly faster than Gathright though. Justin is supposed to be the fastest. My brother sees BJ Upton and Gathright play every night, and he definitely feels like Gathright is faster. BJ Upton, on the other hand, is one of the worst defensive players he's ever seen.

SoxFan1 Posted August 7, 2005 Share Posted August 7, 2005 Isn't Chevy a sponsor for the Cubs? Don't the Cubs and Ran Santo and Chevy some sort of connection or something? Maybe it is Dodge, I'm not sure but 200 SB's in less than 3 years is pretty damn good. Pods and Reyes not being on there is a joke. Hmm, fastest players. "Eric Byrnes gets a triple every so often. Oh, and Vizquel was fast 10 years ago. Let' not put the MLB leader in steals. He is only obliterating the rest of the pack." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sirotka33 Posted August 8, 2005 Share Posted August 8, 2005 There has to be some endorsement connection as there is NO WAY that the players on this poll are the fastest in the majors. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nook logan is superfast right up there with pods and Chone figgins is second in steals as we speak. Eric Bynes being on there and pods and reyes not on there is what is ridiculous.

MarlinFan84 Posted August 9, 2005 Share Posted August 9, 2005 At least Pierre gets recognition, but the part that makes me laugh is when they talk about Rollins "ranging deep in the hole to knock down a grounder"...if i am not mistaken he has the worst RF and ZR of any NL east SS.
