Sadly, not amazing enough to steal 61 more bases.Soozehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06244595602514803118noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1549089718489651445.post-54568805860053130252007-08-26T10:19:00.000-05:002007-08-26T10:19:00.000-05:00Ms Theron flipped the numbers in her division. Jose is averaging 1 stolen base in every 1.8 games, not 1.8SB/game. So with 34 games left, he's on pace for roughly 19 more SBs, which would put him just short of 90 for the season.Jimhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10484502492392618454noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1549089718489651445.post-24132159186167127552007-08-26T09:50:00.000-05:002007-08-26T09:50:00.000-05:00I just spent five minutes of my life trying to figure out what you meant by "averaging 1.8 SBs per game"...I think times on base. Although it would be hard to get a steal after a HR, and somewhat rare after a triple.<BR/><BR/>If the Mets pull away from the Braves and Phillies with a couple weeks left, he might decide to steal every time he gets a chance, regardless of opportunity. Short of that, though, I doubt he'll get to 100- he's averaged .55 SB/game, and would need to average .86 the rest of the way.Vegas Watchhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02353166004125421683noreply@blogger.com
