His running the bases on those triples was amazing. I was shocked at his speed. That was great to see!

When Pearson hits, everybody hits.

He was a 6.5 guy in HS I believe.

One of the announcers this year said he was the fastest guy on the team. I also heard someone else say Kling was. Regardless he is definitely fast.

You must’ve not watched any games last year.

My money would be on Kling, but Josh is Jimmy John’s fast.

You wouldn't believe me if I told you, but he can run like the wind blows.

Not knowing any measurable times I would think Pearson, Kling, and Crews are the three fastest guys on the team. That is from watching them run the bases and track fly balls all year. Pearson looking like he has returned to his freshman form right on time.

I think Crews and Kling are the only two players faster.

Yeah and a couple weeks back some fans were wondering why he was playing.
I guess we will trust the coaches.
They seem to have a handle on who should start, even the pitching rotation.

It is definitely one of those two. I think it is Kling but probably not by much. Both guys should be in the outfield next season. Kling's offensive numbers are a little better this season. Whoever has the best glove of the two probably ends up in centerfield. Kling has flashed some arm strength as well.

Lunch pail guy? Coach on the field? Has his own set of keys?

He's a good athlete and he hustles. I wish he would've gotten some time at 2B during Dugas' slump

Pretty sure he has run 60 times sub 6.6

Kling is faster, not so sure about Crews, that would be a good race.

Josh is one of those guys where I bet you Kling runs a faster time than him, but if you lined them up for a race Josh would win. He's been that way his whole life. Had the same conversation with his Dad 7-8 years ago.
