Btw benintendi, betts and jbj all almost have the same sprint speed on statcast (betts is a couple tenths faster). Jbj is well below average in sprint speed for a cf though.

Reads and good routes can compensate some but it can only do so much if you are too slow.

This is especially true at higher levels. In hs the guy with a sure glove and good reads might play cf but at higher levels everyone has those traits so you can't compensate as much.
