This year, Remillard is hitting .236 (50-for-212) with 41 runs scored, 10 doubles, five home runs, 25 RBI and 13 stolen bases. He is currently tied with Víctor Reyes for the team lead in runs scored (41) and leads the club in walks (33) and stolen bases (13). Last season, he hit .280 (117-for-418) with 83 runs scored, 19 doubles, two triples, nine home runs, 52 RBI and 19 stolen bases.
