one problem with having a team with mediocre power is we never fucking stole bases.  If you are going to suck at power you better be able to steal bags consistently, especially with players like Pena.  That fucking tool should be running every single time he gets on 1st base like all the top base stealers are doing.  He has the 11th best sprint speed (really like 5th when it comes to the number).....Ohtani is fucking 174th (29.8 to 28.1)  and has almost 60 steals.  Pena stole 20 fucking bags.    

Meyers is our 2nd "fastest" guy (28.9) and stole 11...hell Tucker (26.0) is slow as fuck compared to these guys and stole 11 in his shortened season 

Jeremy Pena should have no less than 40 steals per season at this point where they have made it easier to steal.  

10000%. This is an organizational issue. If Melton ever arrives, I doubt they give him the green light, even though he's 81/94 in the minors so far in 227 games. That comes out to 67 attempts in a 162 game schedule. Altuve had 65 attempts in 2014 and before him Bourn had 64 attempts in 2010.
