Favorite Defensive Players:
  1. Roberto Clemente
  2. Willie Mays
  3. Cal Ripken Jr.
  4. Ozzie Smith
  5. More to come.....

Roberto Clemente:
Roberto Clemente was one of the greatest outfielders of his time, and of all-time. He would make spectacular catches giving Willie Mays a competition in the defensive category. Although mostly known for his powerful arm out in Right Field. Runners would test his arm many times and after being thrown out so many times, many of the leagues runners from 1955-1972 soon began to be much more hesitant on the base paths and knew never to run on him unless you knew 110%, that you were going to make it.
 
Willie Mays:
Mostly known for his dazzling catches and always quick sprints to the ball. Willie Mays was one of the best defensive Outfielders ever. With his quickness and dazzling spectacles in the outfield, it just put people in aw.
Most known for "The Catch" as we call it in the 1954 World Series vs. the Cleveland Indians. That was probably the best catch ever made, he was sprinting so fast to the wall and it seemed like he'd never get there in time, but indeed, he
did, and he made one of the best defensive plays of all-time. What most people don't know is after Willie Mays caught the ball, you probably have seen him spin around and throw the ball back in. The throw too, was so spectacular, the runner tagging from 3rd actually had to hurry up just to touch home in time. Willie Mays had quite an arm on him.
 
Cal Ripken Jr.
In my opinion, Cal Ripken Jr. is the best shorstop of the 1980s. Yes, even better than Ozzie Smith. Ripken Jr. had the natural quickness and made everything look so easy and like anybody could do it. He just did it that natural.
When Cal Ripken Jr. moved from SS to 3B I don't think it changed him much. It just now made him the best 3B of his time also.
Even after being in his late 30s, Ripken Jr. still made every play that came near him seem easy. I mean, he did it so lifeless and it never even seemed that he tried. I wouldn't be suprised if he would have never broke a sweat out there.

The years within the parenthesis mean, for example: Cal Ripken (80s/90s), that means Cal Ripken Jr. was good in the 80s and the 90s. Im not going to put the same player in two different decades so I just put the other decade within the parentheses.
