He doesn't cover as much ground as anybody, both Mike Trout and Austin Jackson cover significantly more ground than he does and have considerably more speed. Curtis Granderson makes lots of unbelievable catches too, you don't see me saying he should be a Gold Glove winner.

I still don't understand how it's trolling to disagree with someone, especially when you're in the minority of the people who think Adam Jones deserved the Gold Glove.

I'm in the minority because the majority of this board are sabermetrics fools who drool over Mike Trout. Anybody who watches Adam Jones play CF (who isn't an idiot, I guess you don't apply here) knows he's a great CFer, one of the best. Heck at the beginning of the season he was voted the THIRD best OUTFIELDER in the MLB by a poll of MLB players.

I'm not even referring to you being in the minority on this board, you're in the minority in the country.

Why am I an idiot? Because you're an Orioles fan who's a clear Adam Jones homer?

I'd love to see this player poll voting him the third best OF in the MLB. He's not even the third best outfielder in the American League, let alone the MLB.

Bad routes lead to amazing catches.

It was at the beginning of the year on a pre-game Fox broadcast on a Saturday. I can give you the link to where the video WAS on MLB.com, it was taken down though. I wouldn't make something like that up though...
