The Giants have a long history, so there are a lot of choices. Do you think that Jennifer made the correct ones?
The Giants have the best starting outfield ever. Willie Mays, Barry Bonds, and Mel Ott are baseball legends that is even better than the Yankees.

I think there should’ve been a spot for Brandon Crawford on this team.

He does have similar stats to Art Fletcher. It’s always hard to determine if those early players were considered good fielders or not.
They didn’t give out awards back in those days. I noticed Art Fletcher got hit by pitches a lot. That has to account for something, lol.
