Off to quite a sizzling start this year. The Rays like him for his defense and speed, but the offensive burst he's displaying is very encouraging. A .932 OPS from a guy that hasn't topped .700 in a full season yet is obviously unsustainable (particularly thanks to a .394 BABIP), but the gains in power, if at all for real, make for a very interesting boost to this team.
