Shhhh. I love when people post shite purely based on name values without looking things up.
Torii was worth 2.1 more games than Hamilton last year according to Baseball Reference War.
Yawn, clearly Hunter is a better defensive player even with his no longer unbelievable defensive abilites that he had back in Minnesota, but Hamilton was clearly better.
Hamilton:
148 games
43 homers
60 walks
.354 OBP
.577 SLG
.930 OPS
Hunter:
140 games
16 homers
38 walks
.365 OBP
.451 SLG
.817 OPS
Do not just blindly recite WAR. Anyone with half a brain can see Hamilton was a superior player. FWIW, Hamilton had a higher oWAR last year by the way. Your entire argument is based on defensive metrics, which are fairly skeptical to believe in nature.

Josh Hamilton had an OPS+ of 139
Hunter was at 132.
I never said Hamilton wasn't better, but it's not a slam dunk like some were acting.

Hunter is not a better defensive player than Hamilton right now at all. And Torii Hunter was my favorite Angel the last few years. He gave my daughter a big smile and waived to her when she said heyyy Torii last year. He's just getting old.
