Age hasn't done much to slow Turner yet. The three-time All-Star and defending NL Batting Champ led MLB in 2025, averaging 30.3 feet per second sprint speed. He also swiped 36 bases in 43 attempts.

Scott is a swift fielder and baserunner, and the Cardinals are hoping his bat follows. He averaged 30.2 feet per second last season and stole 34 bases in 138 games.

Witt is the definition of a five-tool superstar, winning the Gold Glove and Silver Slugger in consecutive seasons. He had 38 stolen bases last season and has 148 steals in his four-year MLB career. Witt averaged 30.2 feet per second in 2025.

Buxton's legs were healthy again last season, and it showed on the bases and in the field. He hit 35 home runs and stole 24 bases, averaging 30.2 feet per second sprinting.

Teodosio has been a role player in his brief MLB time, but he has a chance to carve out a role due to his elite speed and defense. He showed it off with seven steals in 50 games for the Angels last season. 

Like Bobby Witt Jr., Carroll has established himself as a five-tool superstar in his early MLB career. He's stolen more than 30 bases in three straight seasons and has also led the NL in triples each year. He averaged 29.8 feet per second in 2025, also hitting 31 home runs.

The younger brother of Braves superstar Ronald Acuna Jr., Luisangel had 16 steals off the bench with the Mets last season. He's set for more playing time this year after getting traded to Chicago, potentially replacing Luis Robert Jr. as the team's center fielder.
