@JomboyMedia@TalkinBaseball_ “Talking to from Pat Murphy” lol as he’s walking away from him and not even acknowledging him. Dude has no control of his team
@j_mccolpin@Starting9@Castellani2014 A lot of his most famous catches are home run robberies which speed doesn’t factor into once you make it to the wall. And that’s part of it. Smith had more longevity because he could still produce. And with more ABs still hit higher than Jones did. Edmonds hit 30 points higher
@j_mccolpin@Starting9@Castellani2014 Edmonds also had superior offensive numbers. Edmonds has about 5 iconic catches and that’s not by accident. Jones was washed at 30. .254 career hitter and didn’t get 2000 hits. Ozzie had nearly 2500 on top of being the best defensively so the Ozzie comp doesn’t really work
@jr7x11@Starting9@Castellani2014 Mays, Griffey Jr., Torii Hunter, and Edmonds are all comparable. You can’t say Jones is clearly better defensively than any of those
