Around SBN: Steve McNair Found Shot to Death


Best/Worst AL Defenders

BBTF compiled the list.

Franky G gets one of the highest ratings (not only for his position, but overall). Asdrubal and Grady score well, too.

Surprisingly, Garko scores among one of the worst at his position and Ben Francisco is actually one of the top 5 LF'ers (!!).

Great, so a team loaded with groundball pitchers has one of the league’s best outfield defenses.

The Indians worst 3 are Blake at 3rd, Dellucci in left and Garko at 1st.

Frankie G is in the top 5 twice, leading the team in right and also putting a good showing in center. In fact, while Grady is 3rd, Frankie is the 7th best CF in the AL.

If you were good enough, maybe we'd name it after you.

I’d expect Blake to have a hard time making the throw to Garko from Chavez Ravine.

I’m guessing he meant as composed coming into the season. Below avg. defense from both corner infield spots and an avg. at best from Peralta…. yeah and we knew this coming into the season (although some thought Garko was adequate)
