Actually I demand the following cards:
1990 Awards ROY Braves
2000 Postseason Yankees
1997 All Star Flashback Indians
And of course a 2002 Veteran Flashback AthleticsAdd a Sig card just to cover it all off.
That should keep everyone happy.

I agree, it is a bit low....I doubt they will do anything though, they still have Betts with 62 Speed and he can run with just about anyone.

One player with absolutely no hustle at all is Awards Sheffield. Hit a weak chopper down the third base line, basically a swinging bunt and he pulled that slow jog like they would on an easy grounder to second. any hustle (with 71 speed) would have beat it out...easy! Come on man!

Agreed. Sheffield shows no urgency at all. Imagine if he had continued as a SS?

ONLY if the 2002 Veteran card actually shows Stephen Bishop.
"Well Good Luck with that!!"

Triples and stolen bases do not indicate speed. Yadier Molina stole 6 bases last year and 9 in 2017. You can be a smart base runner, you don't need speed to steal bases
Steals are more of a "you have to want to steal" kind of stat. It's all about the players motivation, players like Doby probably could have stolen more if they wanted to. It isn't always an indication of speed
Also I read up on the triples thing, apparently, Stan took more pride in hitting a triple then a home run, so that could also be chalked up to hussle, he loved getting triples.
I tried to find sprint speed, but couldn't find anything, so I'm not sure where Musial gets his speed from, but I don't think looking at triples or stolen bases reflect speed either, so idk what the answer is.
You really tried to find sprint speed stats from the 1940's to 1960's?

I mean there are videos of him running, I feel like there'd at least be some kind of estimate

Heeeyyyy. The original post is up to 20 likes!
Read the research, everybody! I think I make a good case (even though the title of my post might not be the best).
