All due respect to Juan Soto, but this young Dominican is a future super star if not already..........

From the moment he burst onto the scene in 2023, Cincinnati Reds shortstop Elly De La Cruz has set himself apart as one of the most electrifying athletes in baseball.

He may be pretty fast but seems lacking in math. In racing and golf, the goal is to get a lower number than the opposition.

This young fella is very talented but could use some humbling. I say set it up and let let'em have at it.

It would be really fun to see them square off in a 100 meter race, and follow that up by seeing who is fastest going around the bases :) I'm pretty sure Lyles would smoke him in the 100, and De La Cruz would come out ahead rounding the bases...but by how much?
