Lo maravilloso en Vizquel no era verlo hacer jugadas espectaculares sino verlo hacer las jugadas de rutina.. Cuánta elegancia! El mejor de todos los tiempos Manos de seda
Best ever defensive shortstop. I get sick of hearing about Ozzie Smith, Ozzie has nothing on Vizquel offensively or defensively and the fact that Smith and Aparicio are both in the HOF with lower batting averages and lower fielding percentages should make Vizquel automatically in the HOF.
I just have same opinion with you. Ozzie didn't have Omar's bear hand catches. Ozzie had poor arm strength and his throws from the hall couldn't reach directly to the firstbase man. I wonder why Vizquel has been struggling on the HOF voting.
@satoshisata3409 Omar was on a good track for awhile, gaining votes each year, but then there was some scuttlebutt about domestic abuse issues. Does not seem to be in the man's character to me, but perhaps there is a hidden side...
C'mon, man. Ozzie didn't have Omar's hands, but nobody had Ozzie's range. Ozzie's deservedly in the Hall. I think Omar is getting screwed by the fact he played in the steroid era, so while his OPS is better than Ozzie's, his OPS+ is lower. But saying Ozzie isn't as good defensively as Omar seems short-sighted. Vizquel is, in a lot of ways, more entertaining to watch than Ozzie, but when it comes to turning ground balls into outs, Ozzie is second to none.
He's a tough call, 3000 hits would be nice, he's 133 shy. Still, he's 43rd all time there. Only 3 AS appearances in 24 year career. Only once did he garner any MVP votes. I think with some weak candidates on the horizon, especially this year's ballot, he might get in and I'm fine with it. I can go either way with him.
Vizquel se merece el salón de la fama Coppertown, tiene buenas azañas en el campo corto y con el madero no ha sido malo y un caballero en el terreno, esperemos que se le cumpla ese deseo
I think he was a better defensive SS than Ozzie Smith, and here's why: Ozzie played the vast majority of his game on astroturf, and rarely got bad bounces. Vizquel, with the execption of his stint in Seattle, played on grass fields with dirt infields, and quite often got bad bounces from rocks and debris. He was incredible.
Mándenle este video , al seudo fablistan deportivo , llamado Juan Vene , para que observe la clase de Vizquel , y deje las niñadas al momento de votar para que sea electo al Salón de la FAMA , que no sea egoísta con los peloteros VENEZOLANOS , sus paisanos de paso
Quienes lo vimos jugar disfrutamos de lo elegante en su defensa y lo elegante q hacia las jugadas y como bateador no fue un bate quebrado exelente Vizquel ,, soy magallanero y para mí es el mejor y creo q le hurtaron la palabra mago ,,
@@derekwang7330 Ozzie didn't have Omar's bear hand catches and had weaker arm strength. Ozzie's throws from the hall couldn't reach directly to the firstbase man.
@@derekwang7330 DRS is an index of how a player compares to other players in the league. Ozzie was meant to stand out among poor shortstops of his era. Omar stood out even among much better shortstops including several Latinos. Also, since DRS is calculated for only one season, it is defined as an index that cannot be simply compared with past players. Ozzie didn't have fielding and throwing skills that Omar had as I've written. Ozzie was apparently defensively inferior to Omar.
Omar vizquel el papaupa de frente de perfil de espaldas en el aire agachado sentado un fuera de serie no existe otro con esas cualidades naturales como vizquel que mas quieren.
Para mí siempre será el mejor dela historia que ha pasado por las grandes ligas digan lo que digan solo le faltó ganar un mundial para que sea reconocido
the allegations against him are concerning, but that doesn't change anything when it comes to the Hall of Fame. He should already be in there. Don't let the PC Police overtake the HOF. If that's the case, then Cobb and Ruth should be out tomorrow
@@spconrad9612 I know. bums me out. if he had gotten in on his first ballot, which he totally deserved, then this wouldn't be part of the conversation.
@@Stumanji77 .... spot on! I’ve seen many balls get by Jeter that Omar would catch in his sleep. And I hate that “oh well” (shrug) Jeter would make as if to say, “nobody would’ve caught that one”. Yes Derek, Omar would have.
Cant believe no highlights of him barehand catching balls with his throwing arm and almost in one motion throwing the batter out ! Or when he would catch the ball off of the back of his glove !!! And toss out at second for a double play ! He was something else !
The play at like 2:10 is remarkable. Yeah the grab is good but the way he gets up and plants his right leg first instead of getting up with his left leg then having to set his right and then step with his left again. You really can't teach that that's all instinct and the reason why he's the best SS ever
sin lugar a dudas uno de los mejores jugadoes del short stop de la mlb junto a ozzie smit lamentablemente sus problemas familiares no lo han dejado exaltar al salom de la fama ok
Ya debería estar en el HOF con números defensivos que todavía son récords en la actualidad y sus números ofensivos también buenos sus estadísticas como short stop son mejores que muchos están de los que están en el HOF es toda una injusticia.
The Mariners could have just kept Vizquel and had ARod play third. Then the Mariners would have had the greatest defensive left side of the infield ever.
Roberto Alomar tiene 2700 hit. 10 guantes de oro , y fue exaltado. Otra cosa que no entiendo de del salón de fama es que si el pelotero tiene buenos números y luego fuera del terreno el tipo tiene una pelea o se divorcia etc. Sales con muchas mujeres. Lo afecta para ser elegido.. si premia el talento como jugador o si el tipo es una ciudad o ejemplar. Cuando un pelotero de retire que lo nombren papá del Vaticano para que estos periodistas estés felices
Just went and watched 10 straight minutes of Omar Vizquel highlights. I think yall need to go back to the drawing board on your list here… recency bias much?
Quitarle su cupo en Coperstatown es como quitarle a Messi Su Copa Del Mundo. Quien tiene Mejor Trayectoria y Números en el SS que el? Hasta le quitaron un Golden Glove porque bateó menos que Jeter? Es Golden Glove o mejor bateador? Sin faltarle el respeto a Jeter
Vean dominicanos lo que era un cc y ustedes y que Tatis jr iba hacer superior a Vizquel y tuvieron que mandarlo para los jardines porque fue un fracasado en esa posición
Grew up watching him. No middle infield was better than Omar and Roberto Alamar. Greatest glove of all time.
Him and Griffey are the reason I started playing baseball
That Seattle team was hard
Both very valid reasons
Lo maravilloso en Vizquel no era verlo hacer jugadas espectaculares sino verlo hacer las jugadas de rutina..
Cuánta elegancia!
El mejor de todos los tiempos
Manos de seda
My all time favorite ball player
Highest career fielding percentage at shortstop and 11 Gold gloves is Hall of Fame worthy 👍
If I recall correctly, at least he deserved one more that was given to ARod
I agree...but the writers are flighty--will need to wait on Modern Era committee..

Put it this way, Ozzie is 26th in all time fielding percentage for a short stop. Still great. No doubt. But Omar was #1 and h was clutch too.
Andrelton Simmons best defensive SS ever.
he's the best shortstop ever...ever
Omar was my favorite player on those Indians teams from the 90's.
Same here along with Kenny Lofton
Omar and Robby Alomar the best combo ever!!
Absolutely!!!
An absolute travesty that they are not widely recognized as such.
Man, they were fun to watch. What a great era for Indians fan.
Ya and no video of it???
I agree
The only, and I mean The. Only. reason he isn't in the hall of fame is cause he wasn't a power bat in the 90s. Who cares. Get him in next year.

i gotta say hes definetly a hall of famer. i just cant think of a better fielder. on par yes. but he is the standard
Ozzie Smith is HOF, Vizquel will be soon
@@mikeshoe74 he played in an error with jeter, nomar and arod. Not like he was bad they just had better power numbers.
@@ryanmatt5541 he's never getting in now with the assault allegations. He was close though. I can go either way with him.
Digan lo que digan fue un señor en cada partido q nos regaló un orgullo para nuestro país 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍🇻🇪💪💪💪💪
Mastered the position
4:15. I was there for that grand slam. Cleveland forever
Me too. That was such a great time period as an Indians fan. Always fun to watch.
They need to get rid of all the dolans!
The best ss that has gone through the big leagues in recent times
? Better than jeter and arod ? Oh hell naw , omar is the second greatest defensive ss but he cant hit
@@abrahangomez6816 Jeter was really bad defensively, and arod was a ss half of his carreer. Omar ended up with one more hit than Babe Ruth, he CAN hit
Vizquel se merece el salón de la fama Coppertown, tiene buenas azañas en el campo corto y con el madero no ha sido malo y un caballero en el terreno, esperemos que se le cumpla ese deseo
IDOL, HALL OF FAME.
Get Vizquel, Belle and Lofton in the HOF already!!
Vizquel only has a 44 WAR
Por favor ., se requiere un video con las mejores jugadas de Vizquel as y Alomar 2B., estás dos leyendas.

Omar Vizquel, con sus 11 Guantes de Oro ganados, ya debería estar en Cooperstown,
sin pasar por "GO". 31/5/2020.
Like #1000. Vizquel was a beast 🔥
He's #1 in fielding % for SS for a reason. Was pretty good at 3rd,2nd, and even 1st. The few times he played there.
Best SS in the game.
Lo mejor q e visto
2:07 That manager straight up littering on the field lol
Para mí siempre será el mejor dela historia que ha pasado por las grandes ligas digan lo que digan solo le faltó ganar un mundial para que sea reconocido
En la,serie mundial falló una jugada de frente para doble play y anotó atlanta la carrera ganadora.
molded my game up the middle after two guys: Cal Ripken and Omar Vizquel. (then tore my shoulder in college as a pitcher, but that's another story) ha
El mejor de todos los tiempos

I’d rather have Omar Vizquel at SS than Jeter
basically everyone would. Jeter was a below average SS AT BEST.
Jeter was not below average
He had 3465 hits, 310 career ba, 260 Home runs, and had 14 all star appearances
He wasn’t anywhere close to below average
A below average SHORTSTOP, not a below average hitter. His defense was never great, despite the jump throws.
@@Stumanji77 .... spot on! I’ve seen many balls get by Jeter that Omar would catch in his sleep. And I hate that “oh well” (shrug) Jeter would make as if to say, “nobody would’ve caught that one”. Yes Derek, Omar would have.
Vizquel was a better fielder but Jeter is the better player
🐐 goat
Love Omar
Cant believe no highlights of him barehand catching balls with his throwing arm and almost in one motion throwing the batter out ! Or when he would catch the ball off of the back of his glove !!! And toss out at second for a double play ! He was something else !
Barehanded plays are crazy from deep in the infield like he plays blindfolded or something
COMO ESTE CON EL GUNTE PASARAN MUCHOS AÑOS PARA Q APARESCA ALGUNO SERA PARECIDO PORQ MEJOR NO LO CREO
No creo ya que salga otro igual ! Esto es historia para siempre. ! Saludos
El chamo Visquel
Greatest defensive SS of all time. Nobody else really comes close.
I grew up trying to make barehanded plays because of Omar.
Omar was great

The most successful Cleveland Indian shortstop of all time and probably the second favorite Cleveland Indian of all time
Kenny Lofton for me.
had Arod decided to play 3rd base for Mariners, they could have kept Vizquel. Just imagine a defensive team of Arod, Griffey, Vizquel, Tino.
ARod Play shortstop for the Mariners not third-base that’s when he went to the New York Yankees !
@@adam856023 yeah you got dropped on your head one too many times as a child

Despues de la entrevista a buscar omar vizquel highlights en you tube
Why didn't we put the last hit in the final as the last thing....?
Editing matters.
11 Gold Gloves (a full decade +1). He needs to be in Cooperstown.
he is cool Guy
Ya debería estar en el HOF con números defensivos que todavía son récords en la actualidad y sus números ofensivos también buenos sus estadísticas como short stop son mejores que muchos están de los que están en el HOF es toda una injusticia.
Omar Vizquel, Rey Ordonez
Un Shorp Stop muy completo
Those teams - incredible lineups - never had an ace. Dammit....
How many gold gloves does this guy have? Unreal....
palabras mayores
Vizquel played for a LONG fucking time…
I named my cat after Omar.
I’d rather listen to the commentator at 9:00 than Joe Buck
Por favor pasenle ese video a Juan "Judas" Vené...
Not a single bare handed play? That was his bread and butter lol
I don't know how jeter is always mentioned in the best Ss conversation instead of this monster.. Jeter is nothing compared with Vizquel
Es el ss más grande de todos los tiempos y salon de la fama quieranlo o no
Venezuela
@6:35 great play except the dude was safe lol
The Mariners could have just kept Vizquel and had ARod play third. Then the Mariners would have had the greatest defensive left side of the infield ever.

By The Future Hall of Fame. And he was Still whit Cleveland. Why he Still nota In ?
Great hands and range. Not as amazing as Rey Ordonez. But was definitely a lot better of a hitting SS than Ordonez
Cubría con la derecha y bateaba con la izquierda 😮 WTF
Better than ozzie and better than ripken and way better than morgan
0:12

Just went and watched 10 straight minutes of Omar Vizquel highlights. I think yall need to go back to the drawing board on your list here… recency bias much?
😂😂😂
MADE IN VENEZUELA
Overall Jeter was much better.
Yeah and Mike Trout is better than Alek Thomas. What's the comparison
Ni volviendo a nacer va aser mejor que ozzi smiht
lo supero en todos los números tanto ofensivos como defensivos el lo unico q le gana ozzi es en hr
And th Indians traded Visquel because... Jhonny Peralta was ready in triple-A ???
Peralta was kind of a joke compared to Omar. Dumb move by CTown
#2 on the Yankees is best SS all-time

The guy won 9 GGs and the highlights of him on the indians are him batting? 🗑
Yeah a gold glove isn’t just for fielding it’s for the best player offensively and defensively
Buen guante pero era manco
Vean dominicanos lo que era un cc y ustedes y que Tatis jr iba hacer superior a Vizquel y tuvieron que mandarlo para los jardines porque fue un fracasado en esa posición
The hall of fame is for serious players, Vizquel does not qualify
Ozzie smith is best than him
oMAR IS THE ORIG JETER
06:36 clearly safe
But if I had to pick a shortstop when it came to fielding I would pick Rey ordonez before omar
