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 25 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)
- .231 .716 OPS, 19 home runs, 55 RBI and 40 stolen bases over 131 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 — 509 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
Next up: at San Diego Padres. 10 more to reach 50 SB.
