Thank you for a nice reply, ElMago. I'm simply a dedicated fan. I think Corbin is a model athlete -- and I wish more athletes would be like him. Enjoy the rest of the season and playoffs.

You're a strange fella. Have you seen how fast Corbin can run? Have you noticed that he busts his ass right out of the batter's box? Have you noticed how many times he turns a routine single into a hustle double? He is a "great combination of speed and power" -- just like it says in the title of this thread.
Don't be a hater -- enjoy Corbin's talent. hustle, and humility. His manager says that he's a joy to manage.
I'm not a hater and I'm not ignorant about how things work. Since that stadium opened let's look at who's won the NL triples crown: Dellucci in 98, Womack in 2000, Finley in 2003, Peralta in 2015, Marte in 2018, Escobar in 2019, and Carroll 2023-2026. 11 of 29 NL titles to one francihse - one park. When you see David Dellucci and Eduardo Escobar leading the league in triples you might want to give Chase Field some credit.
Of Carroll's career triples about 65-70% of them are from Chase. Considered for all players, league wide, the "Chase factor" since 1998 is 1.9x the average park rate. Carroll also plays at a few other triples friendly parks in his division. I don't want you to tear down your shrine, but it's important to keep things in perspective. As an adult... if you're a child then of course buddy.. he's the triples master and so so fast... and handsome.
