There's some truth to that. Look at Brooks Robinson (one of my faves). His offensive numbers are decent but not earth-shattering. But, he's still arguably the best defensive third-sacker ever (with due respect to Scott Rolen).

I still don't feel that Tinker's defense is in the same league as many other players of the time. I have no problem with Ozzie, Omar, or Brooks. But, Tinker is a strecth.
