I was talking about one season, only, and I mentioned it was a close call with JBJ, Lynn and Coco.
The UZR/150 and DRS numbers show others had better seasons, but I guess one's opinion cannot deviate from the metrics, if one is viewed as a stat geek.
Either way, I don't idolize Kike: I defend him against false statements and put downs.
Kike was never my favorite Sox player like JBJ was for a half decade or more, but I still think Kike played a fantastic defensive CF for us in 2021. The best? Maybe not. Maybe, probably not. Maybe I was a victim of the recency effect. I should have said "one of the best," I suppose.
