this place is dying, and understandably so considering it's mid-April, so i will do my best to inject some life.

all i ask for in return is honesty. don't cheat. let me say it in spanish. no hagas trampa. that's not asking a lot.

yes, i know the answer to this question, because i actually cared about baseball during this time period.

here goes.

from 1991-1993 (3 seasons), this player led MLB with 207 stolen bases. who was it?

that's a lot of thefts. almost 70 per season, on average. almost one every two games, on average.

i feel the need to say it again.............don't look it up. do not even look a single year up.

go!

    not VC either, but also a good guess

    I'll admit, this is not an easy one. dallas is the smartest guy in the room when it comes to baseball, but I'm not sure even he knows this one

    My final guess, and this one has me stumped, is Barry Larkin, I seem to remember him having real good speed especially early in his career.

    i think it may be Marquis Grissom? I believe he played for Montreal at the time?

    George Brett, Roger Clemens and Tommy Brady.

    By the way, did Goldenage leave the forum? He and DD kept this place hopping between them.

    if that's a legit guess, and I have no reason to believe it's not, then that's very impressive

    the only reason I knew this is because I followed the Expos in the early 90s. Grissom wreaked a lot of havoc on the basepaths during that time

    well done sir!

    I'm guessing Otis Nixon. He always looked about 80 years old, but with speed.

    Oops...question has been answered.

    well done sir!

    the first half of the 1990s I ate, drank and slept baseball. and football as well. I was young at the time and it was practically my whole life. I remember delino deshields also stole a lot of bases for those expos teams.
