The Sox will lead the league in SB this year after being one of the worst teams last year finishing with only 68. last year. Putting last year aside the team has incredible upside with a full season of a hopefully healthy Ellsbury, and the addition of the most feared base runner in all of baseball.

Oh and i forgot, last year we finished second in the AL in stolen base percentage only being caught 20% of the time.
Can't wait to see the sox tear up the paths a big offensive tool i think that is over looked by the casual fan.
