Elly De La Cruz is looking to become the first player to steal 100 bases in over three decades. Does the oddsboard suggest he can accomplish the feat?
Elly De La Cruz has quickly become the greatest thief in Major League Baseball — but not in the traditional sense of the word. The 22-year-old Cincinnati dynamo has recorded 32 stolen bases in 63 games this season, meaning he's currently on pace to have … a lot — 83 to be exact. And of course, bettors can now dive into the action. At DraftKings Sportsbook, De La Cruz's Over/Under stolen base total is set at 99.5.
Another Hall of Famer, Lou Brock, stole 118 in 1974, former All-Star Maury Willis stole 104 in 1962, and then at the conclusion of the 1800s, a handful of guys accomplished the feat. Again, it's few and far in between. Back to De La Cruz. FOX Sports MLB writer Rowan Kavner noted that it's the Cincy star's 'distinct combination of speed and power' that's 'putting him on pace for a 100-steal, record-setting season.
