Is there any site that has that for other speedsters? Like what is time for guys like Reyes, Hamilton, Gordon? I'd love to see some side-by-side comparisons.

 

Here is an article.

 

Says Hamilton was clocked at 3.3 on a drag bunt, but some don't believe it. A scout said the fastest he ever clocked was Brett Gardner on a 3.5 bunt to 1st.

 

Later in the article a scout says the fastest he has ever timed to first on a swing was Billy Hamilton at 3.8. So if Micah was actually clocked at 3.74 on that play in which he swung, he essentially has Billy Hamilton speed, at least acceleration wise. Hamilton may be better running the bases or longer distances maybe.

Micah hits a chopper to the right of the pitching mound, nearly beats it out. My god he is stupid fast. If he bunted 100 times a season, I bet he could hit .450 or better in those ABs.

3.72 for Micah Johnson down to 1B there. That's 80

A Micah scouting video uploaded not too long ago by BA.

 

Of course, the dude made a blasphemous mistake by call him a Cubs prospect.

 

Honestly not the best video of Micah there. Looked horribly fooled on most swings.
