Will he and should he are two different things. I think he could, but I don't think he should. He's solid, but not spectacular.unknown brooklyn cabbie " how are the brooks doin"
unknown fan "good they got three men on base"
unknown brooklyn cabbie "which one?" -
Howie Rose did mention a few weeks ago that his throws to first were better.
Gold Glove votes don't necessarily go to the best defenders.The Mets have the best, smartest fans in baseball.Comment

Amazing that with defense one would ask such a question without putting forth the numbers. Nobody would do that for Cy Young or MVP. Wright is mid-pack in fielding pct, range factor (plays made/game), and UZR (fangraphs #). By all measures Chase Headley or Placido Polanco !?! look to be having the best defensive seasons among NL 3B.Comment

He's improved significantly on the defensive end.Comment

His throwing has gotten a lot more consistent that's for sure.Comment

Sorry about that, sir. The poll was a spur of the moment thought. And, in fairness, I made it so the poll closes Aug 31, and the numbers can change up or down by then.Originally posted by PVNICK View PostPut it in the books.Comment

I knew it woudl come as critical of the OP it was meant as a commentary on how. largely defense gets viewed. Generally people cite defense with no respect to numbers just how the guy looks. Case in point, Derek Jeter.Originally posted by milladrive View PostComment

I love David Wright, but there should have been two perfect games yesterday. Should have used his glove on the only "hit" and why was he rushing his throw in the ninth?Fan of The NY Mets!Comment

Hehe, I'm guessing this was pretty poor timing to make this poll. Who knew?

I thought he should have used his glove too but Wright said he used his barehand because of Upton's speed.Originally posted by Chuck The Mets Fan! View Post
Wright also said that if it were a slower runner he would have used his glove.And Wright also said that if he
knew this would be the only hit he would have taken his chances and used his glove on Upton as well."You don't give up any runs,we'll guarantee you
at least a tie." ~ Grote to KoosmanComment

Wright's not the best-fielding 3B in the league - just the best 3B. No on the GG, but his defense has really improved (last night notwithstanding).Cleon Jones catches a deep fly ball in F. Scott Fitzgerald's Valley of the Ashes, and a second-grader smiles in front of the black and white television.Comment
