Jesse Winker is back and healthy, and despite his 2018 season ending prematurely due to a shoulder injury, he did boast an on-base percentage that started with a ‘4’ before hitting the DL. Jose Peraza, meanwhile, led off 50 times last season, and sported a tremendous .310/.347/.465 line over the final 459 PA of his year, also swiping 23 bases in the process.
If you could somehow combine Winker’s ability to get on base and Peraza’s speed, you’d end up with almost a prototypical leadoff hitter, one who, on paper, looks exactly what we all hope Taylor Trammell will end up being in a few years.
