Someone increase the "Reyes is the most exciting player in baseball" counter.

I don't know if this table can be seen without a subscrition, but Jose Reyes is currently third in the majors in VORP, with 11.0. (A-Rod is first with 15.5). He's done a great job of improving his walk rate and becoming a legitimate lead-off hitter; really proved me wrong.

Let's not forget his defense this year, which has been consistently spectacular. I almost never watch the Astros, so I don't really have much other than numbers (and respect of people whose opinions I trust) to judge Adam Everett by, but really, how is it possible to play SS any better than Reyes has so far this year?
