Lord can that guy play defense.
Everyone wanted us to give up the farm for Kevin Kiermaier - folks, we may already have him...

He was considered to have plus speed coming out of college, but I thought it would be more in line with a Grichuk type of speed (good speed, not necessarily a burner). However he has been clocked in the top 10 this year and one of only a handful at 30 feet per second. It is interesting looking at the list below (by the way, ONeill checks in at over 29 feet per second). Pujols is dead last, with Molina not far behind, yet both are smart base runners.
