Now we have a list that will have many different names- stolen bases in the minor leagues:

2006-2019
1 Rico Noel Covington ’08 300
2 Tyler Bortnick Front Royal ’06 178
3 Mike Mitchell Staunton ’06 168

9 Blake Tekotte Woodstock ’06 127
10 Tyson Auer Luray ’05-06 124
Ruben Sosa Harrisonburg ’10 124

Cory Spangenberg is the only active player on the list, and he went from 12th to tied for 5th in 2019 (28 stolen bases in Triple-A).
