Borbon cemented his reputation as a speedster in 2009. He racked up 19 stolen bases in just 46 games last year, including an August 15th game against the Red Sox in Arlington where he stole four bases. Fellow rookie sensation Elvis Andrus also grabbed three bags that day in the 7-2 victory.
Borbon’s gift of speed and his .312 batting average earned him the leadoff spot in the lineup last season, and he appears to be the frontrunner to replace Josh Hamilton in center field. Coming off injuries, Hamilton is transitioning to left field.
