Look at the Statcast Sprint Speed leaderboard, which measures a player's top speed on the bases, and you'll notice that the names make sense. In the top 10, there's Terrance Gore, Byron Buxton, and Billy Hamilton. At the bottom, there's catchers and designated hitters like Wilson Ramos, Albert Pujols, and Brian McCann. That's all as it should be.

(More specifically: On an individual play, it measures, in feet per second, a player's top speed in a one-second window, where 27 ft/sec is average, and the poor-to-elite range goes from 23 ft/sec to 30 ft/sec. A player's seasonal average is taken from the top percentage of those plays.)

But what about the players who aren't where you expect them to be? Now that we can directly measure foot speed in a way that's more actionable than simply the eye test or who piles up gaudy stolen base totals, we can try to identify some guys who stand out for having a lot more speed than you might have expected.

This is a little subjective, because it has to be. Your impression of how fast a player is or isn't will vary, especially if he plays on a team you don't watch that often. For our part, we're going with players who often elicit a "wait, really?" when we mention his speed on social media, or power-hitting sluggers who don't look like they should be fast. Your mileage, obviously, may vary.

These are the names that stand out to us, in 2019, for being faster than you might think.

Avisail Garcia, Rays (28.4 ft/sec, 86th percentile)

Garcia is the first name that came to mind, in part because he's a big man -- listed at 6-foot-4 and 250 pounds -- and in part because he's never been much of a stolen base threat, collecting only 28 (with 22 times caught) in parts of eight seasons. In some part, he's the one who kicked this list off, because he's near the top of the Outs Above Average leaderboard -- Statcast's outfield range metric -- right next to some true burners in Buxton, Kevin Kiermaier, and Lorenzo Cain, which is surprising.

Yet despite that ... he's ranked well in every year of Statcast tracking. Just check his yearly Sprint Speed scores.

2015: 29.1 ft/sec, 95th percentile
2016: 29.1 ft/sec, 95th percentile
2017: 29.1 ft/sec, 94th percentile
2018: 28.9 ft/sec, 91st percentile
2019: 28.4 ft/sec, 86th percentile

OK, so he's begun to slow somewhat, perhaps unsurprising given that he started to have knee problems last year, but he's consistently been one of the better speedsters in the game even if you never think of him in that way.

Just look at what he did back on March 29, when he hit a routine-looking ground ball up the middle and beat it out, even though Tommy Pham got thrown out at home on the back end. Garcia's Sprint Speed on this particular play was 30.1 ft/sec, which crosses the "elite" line. You don't think about him in this way, but Garcia can motor.

Trevor Story, Rockies (29.5 ft/sec, 98th percentile, 9th best in MLB)

Story is fast.

Story is very fast.

It's not entirely clear why people always seem to be surprised that Story is fast, but any time it's pointed out that he has 98th percentile speed, it seems to elicit shock.

That might be because his reputation now is as a slugger, given the way he blasted his way into the Majors in 2016 -- seven homers in his first six games -- and the 37 home runs in 2018. Maybe it's because most of his scouting reports in the Minors focused on his power, rather than his speed. But even if Story didn't show up highly on the Statcast leaderboards, he did steal 27 bases last year, and he became the first shortstop ever to post 40 doubles, 30 home runs and 25 stolen bases in a season. The wheels are real.

Cody Bellinger, Dodgers (29.2 ft/sec, 96th percentile, tied 15th best in MLB)

The Bellinger story seems somewhat similar to the Story, well, story, in that sometimes it's hard to believe that a powerful slugger could also be this fast. Make no mistake: Bellinger's start has been so good that it's borderline historic, and he's always going to be known for what he does at the plate, not on the bases.

Yet we've seen what Bellinger can do with his legs, too, beyond just swiping 14 bags last season. Witness this infield single he beat out in Denver last month, where he got up to an elite 30.7 ft/sec. Remember when he got up to 29.7 ft/sec back in 2017 to rob Aledmys Diaz of a hit.

Jon Berti, Marlins (30.5 ft/sec, No. 1 atop the leaderboards)

This one feels like cheating, because this isn't so much "you didn't know that Berti was this fast" and more "you have no idea who Jon Berti is." That's fair, because he's a 29-year-old rookie who has all of 16 games of Major League experience, spending most of the last decade in the Toronto farm system. But he is, for the moment at least, behind only Buxton and Gore on the Sprint Speed leaderboards.

The first hint should be that his Twitter handle is @jonny_hustle. The second should be that he stole at least 23 bases in every Minor League season, topping out at 56 back in 2013. The third is that of his 14 competitive runs, he's hit the elite 30 ft/sec mark on half of them. He may not be No. 1 at season's end, but the Minor League lifer you never heard of is showing elite speed in the bigs, backing what he did on the farm.

Jorge Alfaro, Marlins (28.8 ft/sec, 91st percentile, tied 31st in MLB)

When Miami traded J.T. Realmuto to Philadelphia in February, one of the notable things about Realmuto was how athletic he was, that he was baseball's fastest catcher. For each of the previous four seasons, that was true. He was. But so far in 2019, Realmuto has dropped all the way down to second behind the man he was traded for, Alfaro.

This might be a momentary thing, because Realmuto and Alfaro were 1/2 among catchers in both 2017 and 2018, and perhaps at any given time in those years Alfaro might have been slightly ahead. But looking at 2019's number, his top speed is as fast as Brett Gardner or Starling Marte, and in case you weren't perfectly clear on this, he's a catcher.

Or maybe, perhaps, forget he's a catcher. Just watch this clip of Alfaro against Realmuto and the Phillies. No, Alfaro doesn't beat out this infield grounder. But he sure does make it close with a 29.2 ft/sec Sprint Speed, and if you didn't know any better, you wouldn't know he lives behind the plate. This is not your typical slow-footed catcher.

Aaron Judge, Yankees (28.1 ft/sec, 80th percentile)

Yes, Judge is going to be out for a while with an injured oblique muscle, but it's still a good time to point out that baseball's most massive slugger, when healthy, can also move. He's not Buxton-level fast or anything, but he's consistently been above-average in terms of top running speed.

2017: 28.0 ft/sec, 75th percentile

2018: 28.0 ft/sec, 74th percentile

2019: 28.1 ft/sec, 80th percentile

Remember, 27 ft/sec is the league average, and Judge has repeatedly been north of that, which is perhaps surprising for a man listed at 6-foot-7 and 282 pounds. This shouldn't be a surprise, at least if you remember his high school scouting report, which read that his speed was "solid average, better underway," or when MLB Pipeline wrote in 2015 that Judge was "A good athlete for his size, Judge has average speed and defensive ability in right field,"

It's been better than that, really. Our favorite example of this came earlier this year when Judge grounded out to Tim Anderson, or so it seemed. By all indications, it was a routine play, except that Anderson, surprised by Judge's speed -- 28.9 ft/sec on this play -- had to rush his throw, sending it off-target and allowing Judge to beat it out.

This has helped Judge on defense, too, where he's collected +13 Outs Above Average in the field so far in his career. He's a huge man, but he's an athletic one, too.
