The Homerun to at-bat ratio here is off the charts. Nearly compatible to rates in the MLB if not better. Yamamoto leaves a great impression. Now, could he field like ARod?
A-Rod was a top tier defender as a SS. Omar Vizquel was the defensive alpha dog in the American League, but A-Rod was always in the mix.
Omar won something like 9 straight GGs in the 90s IIRC. A-Rod won two GGs in a row with Texas, Jeter didn't get his first GG until A-Rod joined NY (Derek should've moved to 2B/3B).
Hard to say if he'd be as good as A-Rod defensively, that would be something interesting to study later down the road.
