As a hardcore Rays fan I just wanted to give Kiermaier a little love in the blowout community. Considering he has no real cards out there it's not surprising that he's not mentioned much on this forum. My hope is that he somehow ends up with his first MLB autograph card by the end of the season. Bowman Chrome would be ideal.
In what has been a very disappointing season for Rays fans watching Kiermaier has been the silver lining for me. And we have him under contract until 2020
Kevin gives it everything he's got on every play, including running to first base after a walk. He's giving the Rays some badly needed speed and pop in the lineup. And other than Loney he's been our best hitter.
Kevin always signs at games too. Often he'll come out thirty minutes early and make his way from the dugout to the first baseline signing autographs, taking pictures and enduring weird old man crushes.
Anyways, feel free to add on anything Kiermaier related I am going to try and figure out how to add videos.
