In his rookie year,
Led Major Leagues in base thefts,
Franchise mark in runs

| 1997 Ultra #437 Quilvio Veras |
In 1995, Veras led the Major Leagues in stolen bases with 56 thefts. He also set the Marlins' franchise single season records for walks, triples, and runs scored. He finished 3rd in Rookie of the Year voting behind Hideo Nomo and Chipper Jones.
Competing against Nomo and Jones, I'm guessing he was a distant third in ROY voting.
