Shoutout to Samad Taylor, who stole home on Wednesday while playing for Triple-A Tacoma.
Taylor deserves a lot of credit for this play because it requires great timing and great anticipation. Taylor likely saw something in the way the catcher throws the ball back to the pitcher, or stays on a knee to throw it back, that gave him confidence that he could go. We often see a guy swipe home on a first-and-third play, but rarely do you see this type of delayed steal. Awesome stuff.
While at Triple-A this season, he has hit just .220 with three homers and 22 RBI. With speed as his calling card, he's also stolen 12 bases. Taylor is on the 40-man roster, but he's likely behind Jonatan Clase in terms of outfielders who would come up should the M's need one. Clase also has electric speed and has a better offensive profile than Taylor. Cade Marlowe, who played a big role for the M's down the stretch in 2023, is also in Triple-A and on the 40-man roster.
