Chasing 50-50 2013 final

Last season we followed Matt Kemp of the Dodgers in his self proclaimed attempt to hit 50 home runs and 50 stolen bases. For 2013 season we followed Kemp's efforts to see if he could make another run. I also added Mike Trout of the Angels and Carlos Gonzalez into the mix because I think they also have the speed\power combo capable of reaching the mark some day. As of May 9 I added Starling Marte of the Pirates, Carlos Gomez of the Brewers and Hunter Pence of the Giants to the chase based on their performance. As of May 23 Andrew McCutchen of the Pirates and Jean Segura of the Brewers enter the mix. On September 7 I added Paul Goldschmidt of the Diamondbacks, Adam Jones of the Orioles, Alfonso Soriano of the Cubs\Yankees and Will Venable of the Padres to recognize their efforts. At season's end I'm also including Coco Crisp of the Athletics, Shin-Soo Choo of the Indians and Ian Desmond of the Nationals because they all reached the 20/20 plateau. Here is how all the players with the best speed/power combo did in 2013.
