51 of 52 in Stolen Bases - More than Power


Twins Video

I was just discussung this with friends in regards to - Adam Brett Walker II:

 

Through college and his professional career - he is 51 for 52 in stolen bases.

 

College - 40 for 41 SBs (Division 1 Jacksonville University)

Professional - 4 for 4 (Elizabethton 2012 regular season) / 3 for 3 (6 playoff games) / 4 for 4 (Cedar Rapids 2013 regular season).

 

That's a 98% success rate in Stolen Bases over the last 5 years. That's right: I said 98% success rate :). Let this man Run :)

 

Not just a power hitter (.264 ISO in 2013 and 51 for 52 in SBs over 5 years) - High Baseball IQ - WINNER -- Let this man Run. He would have to get thrown out an awful lot to bring down his success rate. 100% as a pro :)

Sadly, they just aren't very bright.

If he'd stop hitting those home runs he would have more opportunities to steal bases.

 

Who the hell is coaching that team? Do I have to do everything?

I'd like to know of another player with 50+ SBs in college and pro career with a better success rate (98%)? --- And that is funny Oldgoat - lol
