But they certainly make a huge difference. <BR/><BR/>One humorous tidbit: the New York Mets radio announcers last week were describing EdE as someone who primarily brings value to his team with his glove! :) He *does* have a knack for snagging hard hit balls down the line, and that (I think) is where they got that impression. <BR/><BR/>Of course, that same announcer made about 50 other factual errors in that broadcast, so whatever. I do wonder why it is that broadcasters can get away with making as many baseless claims as they do. It almost seems like it's an accepted practice sometimes. -jjinazhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07697776280178146413noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23241716.post-72584290079010792672007-07-23T14:45:00.000-04:002007-07-23T14:45:00.000-04:00Now if he could just get that power stroke back......Now if he could just get that power stroke back...<BR/><BR/>honestly, I've always felt that Edwin was better defensively than the numbers stated because of the throwing errors.
