I think it would be fun to see Robert go for a 40 HR/40 SB season some day in the future with a full schedule of games.
He has 4 SBs in 40 games. He’s going to have to make a big jump on the base paths if he’s going to get up to 40 in a season.
I've just always loved runs at 40/40, and there are so few players these days who get close. I don't know much about Kyle Lewis' baserunning tendencies, but I'm really thinking about selecting a Mariners game to watch so I can see him play finally.
Definitely check a game out. There are a lot of young players playing pretty good ball right now.

Lewis is a fun player to watch, and he is criminally underrated defensively on the game right now. But he shredded his knee in the minors which delayed his rise to big leagues so his base running days are largely behind him.
He still covers a lot of ground out in center. He has another bomb to CF tonight and combined on a relay with JP Crawford to throw the tying run out at the plate.
His defence really needs an upgrade.
Agreed. He’s always been a good fielder and he’s made some fantastic plays out there this year. I never understood why they started his defense so low and why they haven’t increased it more over the year.

I think it allows them to keep his OVR where they want it. If his defensive numbers were more accurate to his play this year, I think he would have to be a gold card at this point.

Sometimes you see guys get hot and you can tell they’ll cool off big time but man, both these guys are truly something special to watch. Definitely the future of baseball. Glad I got the MLB.TV for $25 this season.

Yes gold for lewis at a minimum, I would argue he is providing more stats and team value than 25% of current live series diamond players.

Went yard again today!!
I’ll be honest, I bought his 1st Bowman Auto awhile back, so I’m really pulling for the kid now that I have some $$$ invested in him. Bought his Bowman’s Best RC
Auto too. -
