Wow CF has lacked superstar power this decade. I'd have to go with Hunter although Edmonds was consistent

i would say jim edmonds.... was the best at reading the ball off the bat, made spectacular catches that others would miss, and still was a dangerous hitter......

though if we are talking andrew jones then we must talk kirby puckett.....

griffey is up there but his injuries have taken a lot of that away

torri is solid
