DITTO....to what Josh K said......
"I think you need to look at more than the total number of SBs when considering speed." Therefore, I can only vouch for who I saw play. And, I saw Mickey Mantle play from 1951 - 1968. He was a "6-tool" player....... 1..Tremendous hitting power 2..Hit for average 3..Great CLUTCH hitter (especially in World Series play) 4..great fielder 5..Great arm 6..Great speed......Mantle ran a 3.0 secs time to 1st base (fastest in the AL)....got many doubles and triples due to his speed. And, saved many an extra base hit (or even inside the park HR's) by catching up to long drives in the old Yankee Stadium's 461 foot deep centerfield. You had to see him play to really appreciate him.
