Who is more clutch

Since we are doing Vlad-Ichiro.....

We wont consider Gload, since he is on another plane.

I measure Clutch Quotient using this complicated formula:

Clutch Quotient = Clutch Ability - Overall Ability

Since Glanville is the Man during clutch situations but awful during all others, he is clearly ahead of Jeter, who is actually a very good player overall, and Hillenbrand, who also has skills that are occasionally useful on the diamond.

Glanville.

Glanville is synonymous with clutch. Really, his name and that word can be used interchangeably.

"He got a Glanville hit there," means "He got a clutch hit there."

Anyone remember the myriad of threads when Glanville hit that triple in the NLCS against the Marlins 2 years ago? Good times...

Gload's greatness overwhelms this pitiful thread. Gload is CLUTCH. Enough. Thread over.

I don't know, man. If you go and mess with Glanville's online personae, watch out!

You know, polls can have 15 options now.

I'll take Glanville, but how about some love for the FOOTBALL MENTALITY of Darin Erstad? (He's probably the only punter in the history of the world who's constantly praised for his FOOTBALL MENTALITY, but whatever.)

Why aren't Todd Helton (who played quarterback, which is still kind of pink skirt pansy football, but a lot better than a freakin punter) or Brian Jordan (who was a real man safety) praised for their FOOTBALL MENTALITIES? Is it because they can actually play baseball and sportswriters don't need to justify their strange fixation on a player with so limited a skill set?

Clearly, Glanville is the most clutch of this trio, not only using Johnny Slick's Clutch Metric(JSCM) but using just plain common sense. Why do you think the Yanks cut Glanville? Because they need Jeter to be the clutchest guy on the team for marketing purposes.

As for Hillenbrand, though he does have a natural penchant for getting RBI's, he does it in all situations whether clutch or not.
