not any time soon
Guys like Eric Young Jr, Desomnd Jennings, etc will get their fair share but 100 is soooooooo damn tough to do
When Rickey H got his 130 or whatever, I believe he got caught quite a bit too. He was basically trying to snag 2nd and 3rd each time on base it seemed

Ricky and Vince Coleman just seemed to be in a different world when they played. I thought Reyes had a chance a couple years back.

Looks like Rickey got caught just under 25% of the time when he stole 130. Amazing that he led the league in 1980...and in 1998! Plus a bunch of times in between. Career leader in steals and caught stealing, but had a decent rate. Amazing.

Julio Borbon had 19 SB in 40 games last year. If he gets to play a full season at the lead-off spot for the Rangers. I could see him swiping 100+ bases in a season.
In the CWS, I saw him score from second base on a past ball. Just crazy speed.

I remember having a Cardinals T-Shirt that said "Thou Shalt steal", had Vince Coleman, Lonnie Smith, and Willie McGee on the bases. Fun Team to watch......

Pretty sure Josh pulled the Givens rainbow from UD this past year. He kept hitting auto after auto (green,blue,red etc) of his. Not sure what he did with them.

If my memory serves me, he pulled 3 Green Autos /10 did he not?MojoDan said:
Think I tried at one point to get them, but he was asking way too much!
This one only ran me $80.

Yes, what an amazing ball player! I defenitely don't think anybody will hit 130 again... Rickey and Billy Martin were on a mission that year, and it's really the only thing the A's had going for them. Run Rickey Run! Even 100 is going to be tough unless the situation is right. You need to be a great base stealer to do it, but you also need to get the green light from your coach, and of course let's not forget the necessity of getting on base in the first place.

yeah he pulled 3 greens /10. he then rejected my ebay offers for $3, $4, $5 when he put them up together as a lot.
