    The more I see of Adam Everett the more I am reminded of the greatest fielding shortstop in Astros History, Roger Metzger.

    I know 90% of you have no clue who Roger Metzger was.

    Just an old Astros fan, with tons of memories...carry on

    I'm always amazed at how many plays he makes on the other side of second base - guy has great range.

    This is a good comparison, now let's hope that Adam stays away from Chain saws.

    I really can't believe so many people hate him so much. He is our 7th or 8th hitter. If our 3-4-5-6 hitters aren't producing why does everyone blame our 7th and 8th. Everett has been stellar on defense this year and hopefully he can win a gold glove very soon. People don't realize how valuable he is.

    Actually...

    Offensively

    Adam Everett > Roger Metzger
    Adam Everett = Craig Reynolds

    Defensively

    Adam Everett = Roger Metzger
    Adam Everett > Craig Reynolds
