I would have to say 1 and 2 IMO are very close and I have to with drum roll..........


The Twins with hunter, jacque jones(who really is a CF, but with torrii out their they had to move him over) and mohr( who is young and has a cannon for a arm)

next I like the mariners

If you're talking defense then I don't even think it's close. There isn't an outfield out there that has anything close to the speed of Ichiro, Cameron and Winn.

are you nutz you don't think the twins have that speed in their outfield there very few balls that drop in that outfield, as far as stealing bases jacque ain't going to steal none and he ain't going to lay down a bunt or walk, why he says it doesn't pay the bills and people come to see the long ball.

now get this alot of people don't know this but jacque is faster than hunter... and I don't want you to ever forget about that, last year if hunter won a gold glove and jacque was like 4th or something and when they had matt lawton they for sure had the best outfield in baseball no questions asked.

I would have to say either the braves or Yankees.
Unless we are talking defense then I don't know.
But Sheffield has a strong arm doesn't he?
And Andruw is a perennial gold glover.
I don't know how Chipper is in the field but still a great hitter.

For the Yankees, last I new, Mondesi was a pretty good fielder with a strong arm. I thought Bernie was pretty good fielder too and I don't know anything about Matsui outside of his hitting.

I have to go with Atlanta also. An above average defensively outfielders and on the offensive, probably the best 3 in the Majors!

well if you topic was offensive how many jacks and RBI's did the twins outfield have last, well torii was like 1 or 2 shy of 30/30 and jones jacked like 25+ and jacque hit .300 last year and torii just a tab bit lower and the RF position is RF by committee because all those guys are equal out there and keilty, mohr and the other guy can hit bombs just as well.
