Fastest Oriole in recent years?

[Roll Tide]

Brady before the 50 homer year.

I wonder if Wieters is in the top 3 for slowest Oriole.

No.

Wieters is big catcher slow, he isn't comically slow.

[waroriole]

I think I'd vote for Corey Patterson. That guy could fly.

This. Not very close either.

[markdublya]

Agree on Corey, but a shoutout to Delino Decocono DeShields.

[wildcard]

Allan Wiggins. Allan had other problems but I think he was faster than Corey. Alan stole 66 and 70 bases in back to back years before he came to the O's.

[Ruzious]

Can we get Seinfeld or George to track down Patterson and Curtis Goodwin to have a race-off?

I didn't think of Wiggy ...but that's possible. Although I'm sure that speed is not the only factor for SBs. Brady stole 53 ...but as the HR total went up the SBs went down.

Walter Young Jr.....wait a minute... you said "fastest" . Sorry I read it wrong, Corey Patterson.

[spiritof66]

My guess is Patterson.

Slowest from third to home: Jack Cust.

I think I would say

3. Craig Worthington

2. Sal Fasano

1. Terry Kennedy

[Jagwar]

That's what speed does. Didn't Buck say Lough time to first base is the fastest he has seen?

Not sure Lough has reached first base enough to know for sure.

I thought about bringing up Wiggins, but I was not sure what timeframe "recent years" covered. That guy could definitely fly.

We are def not a team built for speed.

We have got to have the slowest RF, SS, and C in the league right now.

We have the fastest firstbaseman.

[Old#5fan]

We have the fastest firstbaseman.

Cal and Brooks were pretty slow as was Boog, so who cares? I would like to see a faster leadoff guy than Markakis but beggars can't be choosey. He is hitting well and getting on base.
