A Gold Glove for Grady
Justin Higgins — Tue, 2007-11-06 20:58
Grady Sizemore is one of my favorite Indians players. He combines terrific defense, great outfield range, and tremendous hitting, for both power and average. If he had a better throwing arm, he'd be a 5-tool player. Add a Gold Glove, the most prestigious mark of amazing defense, to Sizemore's record.
Sizemore has earned a reputation for making plays in the outfield that are of the superhero variety, and that representation was solidified Tuesday when he was given his first Rawlings American League Gold Glove Award.
Managers and coaches from each Major League club vote for the best defensive players in their respective leagues and are excluded from voting for players on their own teams. Sizemore joined the Mariners' Ichiro Suzuki and the Twins' Torii Hunter in landing the AL outfield honor in '07.
Congratulations to Grady Sizemore. Sorry for more sports coverage, but expect more if more Tribe players win awards.
