Great defender.

^ This guys was awesome to watch during his hey-day. Sports Center was incredible in the 90's watching dueling great defensive plays in the outfield from Edmonds in St. Louis and Griffey in Seattle.

A great all-around player, especially on defensive.

However I don't think he'll be a H.O.F'er IMO.

I think it was his time. Don't think he was going to pull a Jim Thome, but he was great in his day.
