He takes some hits for off field crap and a (relatively) short time here, but it's tough for me to think that anyone other than the Rattler was better than Adam Jones. He was an athletic freak, worked like a dog, and was a demanding leader on-field.
Reggie Nelson might have been better than Bates when he was at his peak. I give it to Bates for his playoff performances alone, but Reggie was outstanding all year long.
