He also recorded the first stolen base of the season off Capuano last night. However prior to that he had a couple cs's. I'm very happy with his play of late.
Two hits with a triple with a R (soon to be 2) already tonight. He is absolutely tearing it up. I knew he'd come around. Looks like a buy low opportunity has come to a close. 13 hits in his last 34 ABs with 7 SBs in the last week. He's gonna be awesome down the stretch.

Haha, I was about to say I jinxed the run. Nope didn't see the triple, sort of lame to hear that it wasn't a particularly superlative effort on his part, but the fact remains, the guy gets a ton of at bats, doesn't strike out and has blazing speed. There's nothing not to like for a big second half.
Lol, wow, well you can't say I didn't use the search function, I was going to mention that he was heating up this year and when I searched there was a thread with July dates, and I was thinking to myself, I'll be darned I didn't get there first. My post is the first in this thread's resurrection.
Looks like he heated up around the same time last year.
