Torii Hunter Wins Golden Glove?

CombatWombat3 · 11-03-2004, 09:22 PM

Am I the Only one here who thinks that Torii Hunter should not have won the Golden Glove for Center Field? I live in Minnesota, and am an avid Minnesota Twins fan, but I do not think that Torii Hunter deserved it.
Discuss.

Crap, Ive heard who won I can't think of who it was...

Simple Man · 11-03-2004, 09:49 PM

Yep, Torii got it.

I think he deserves it. He's one of the best defensive center fielders in the game.

Simple Man · 11-03-2004, 10:11 PM

Yeah, he really is he earned every gold glove he has/gets.

no real surprises except kenny rogers, not really known for fielding as a pitcher

torii deserves every part of it

King David · 11-04-2004, 04:52 PM

Torri deserves it he is an awesome defensive player.

and go Twins...

Broken Arrow · 11-04-2004, 05:27 PM

I say Vernon Wells is better then Tori.

Tori is just hyped because of his "Climbing the Wall Catches"

Simple Man · 11-04-2004, 05:43 PM

Those are great catches

They are also really rare too.

That list is a good list.

CombatWombat3 · 11-04-2004, 07:59 PM

Ya it is, I was pleased with the results.

As a Minnesota fan I watch every game I can. And those catches really are very rare. Other than those catches there is nothing, in my mind, very extraordinary about his playing.

Your Mom, B*tch · 11-04-2004, 08:07 PM

Well besides having a fantastic fielding percentage, he makes pretty awesome plays. The Gold Glove awards are voted in by the players and managers, and I would say they are pretty accurate.
