I don't watch much baseball anymore, but he's a modern day Babe Ruth. A complete freak of nature.

While it certainly is impressive here is devils advocate

Bases are bigger and rules don’t allow the pitcher to properly hold on the runner making stealing WAY easier. His previous high was 24 sb

He’s not pitching so both power and sb numbers are higher. He’s also not playing the field. Those number are going to go way down once he pitches and plays the field (if ever)

I’m convinced more players have the ability to both Pitch and hit in the mlb but never get the chance since every level of baseball college and above doesn’t allow pitchers to hit. And for the most part Vica versa

He’s good. But I don’t agree with people saying he’s the GOAT or he’s the modern day babe Ruth.
