Someone said that Jones is the best CF ever. I believe that is a totally fallacy, perpetuated by the SportsCenter highlights.
But my question is who is a better CF over their career?
Jim Edmonds: 9 Gold Gloves, 8 seasons with a perfect fielding percentage, .288 career BA, 33 HR, 101 RBI career
Andrew Jones: 9 Gold Gloves, 2 seasons with a perfect fielding percentage, .265 Career BA, 34 HR, 103 RBI career numbers
I would say that Edmonds is every bit his equal at the plate and the field. And let's not forget that Jones was playing on fantastic Braves teams for the majority of his career while Jim Edmonds was not playing with teams anywhere near that good in Anaheim or STL, when he first arrived.
Of course, I think the best ever CF was Willie Mays, but that is another argument for another day.
