from mlb.com
Adam Jones is the new face in the outfield. The Baltimore center fielder, whose circus catches were among the Orioles’ bright spots throughout the season, dazzled with his gutsy range and strong arm. Ironically, for two years he was one of the young Seattle outfielders whose path was blocked by Ichiro. Then he went to Baltimore in the George Sherrill trade, and now the outfielders reunite on the Gold Glove team.

I love Adam
But it is an absolute travesty that Franklin Guttierez didn’t win. He was the best and it wasn’t even close.

Seattle Fans worst nightmare come true, but in a different way?
I remember reading Lookout Landing back when Bedard was traded, and (hopefully I’m not misremembering, but) some folks were worried that the deal may be historically referred to as “The Adam Jones Trade” instead of “The Erik Bedard Trade”. How interesting, then, is it that the trade is currently known as “The George Sherrill Trade”?

HOORAAAAAYYYY
I don’t even care if it’s “premature” or if he “plays to shallow” or the fact that “Nicky should have won”*, it’s always always great to see an Oriole get recognition for anything in this day and age of constant Yankee/Sox worship.
YAAAAAAY AJ
*though he totally should, someday.
I'm not surprised about Jeter
That’s part of what makes this award a joke. He actually had a pretty good defensive year, although if it were fair I think Andrus would have won. But how are the voters supposed to know about rookies in Texas?

he also isnt the cap'n and wears a uniform sans penstripes.
that eliminates him immediately from contention. that said, i dont believe izzy had the best year of all AL shortstops

He's very good
I don’t really have a problem with that one. I don’t have a problem with Teixeira or Longoria either.

There isn't a lot more I can take
when it comes to hearing about how “underappreciated” Douchera’s defense is. In fact, I’m starting to think his offense might be underappreciated after the fellatio his defense has gotten. Seriously New York Media – he’s a first baseman. His defense is good but it doesn’t really matter…now shut the fuck up.
