Jarrod Dyson wants to steal 50 bases

Jarrod Dyson has set a goal of stealing "at least 50" bases this season.

"I would at least say 50," Dyson said. "I got 30 last year and my numbers weren't even close to what I just said (.280 batting average, over .350 OBP). I just want to do whatever it takes to help this team win." Dyson certainly has the wheels to pilfer 50 bags in a regular role, but right now he's slated to back up Lorenzo Cain in center field. Of course, if Cain has another injury-plagued year, the opportunity might be there.
