Elite season

Why he matters right now

Jazz Chisholm Jr. is top-10 in the majors in stolen bases

He is 2nd in stolen bases at 40 — placements on MLB's own season boards, which rank every QUALIFIED hitter in the sport rather than the few dozen this site tracks. Qualified is MLB's own bar, and it is the reason a part-season player with a big number is not on these boards at all.

This has been his headline for 28 straight days.

The case in 30 seconds

  • 40 2nd in stolen bases at 40 on MLB's season leaderboards MLB season leaderboard (the league's own top-10 board of qualified players, not this site's roster)
  • .229 .713 OPS, 19 home runs, 55 RBI and 40 stolen bases over 132 games snapshot batting board — the union of MLB's top-10 hitting boards, then MLB's 3.1 PA per team game rule applied; not the league's full qualified pool

The honest caveat

It is still a partial season — 513 plate appearances so far. A rate moves fastest against the strongest arms a schedule has left, and the schedule ahead is not the schedule behind.

What to watch next
