New York Mets: All-time “all speed” starting lineup in franchise history

The New York Mets have never been known as a speedy team in their existence, with only eleven players stealing 100 or more bases in their career with the team. Out of the eleven players to steal 100 or bases, only three of them ever reached 200 or more with the Amazins.

The game has changed a lot in recent years with not as many players stealing bases, but for a team that has been around since 1962 only three guys with 200 stolen bases on the team seems rather low.

For this all speed team, we are going to be considering the basic speed statistics such as stolen bases, triples, and doubles.
