Ozzie was indeed an exciting player to watch. It is also interesting that you cite Jeter and A-Rod as the only other shortstops that you would rather have.

Interesting because Ozzie had no bat. Not ever. The two shortstops you cite have a bat, but in my opinion, from a glove standpoint, could not hold a candle to Omar Visquel, let alone Oz.

Bottom line, a bat will get you to Cooperstown faster than a glove, alas, Oz only had the latter.

Ozzie did manage to get his share of bases on balls and was a very effective basestealer.

Jeter is very good with the glove. Good range and good arm. Should have a better year in 2002 with better health and more comfort teaming with an improving Soriano.

A-Rod has a great arm. What about Nomar? He is an acrobat. I mentioned Omar already. Top notch with the glove.
