Darin Erstad
Darin Erstad's "numbers" will not "wow" anyone. Mr. Erstad's career was built on the field, not on the stat sheet. His leadership ability cannot be measured in algorithm, but its effects were seen on the diamond. His defensive prowess was extraordinary; he was one of the few players to win a Gold Glove in the outfield and the infield. Unfortunately, Mr. Erstad will forever be underrated by the SABORmetrics crowd. Yet, he will always be appreciated the most by the people who actually threw the balls, hit the pitches, and ate the dirt.
Darin Erstad is one of the Institute's most respected sportsmen because he sacrifices himself for the benefit of the team.
