Question
What year did we aquire Omar Vizquel & from what team?  How many Rawlings Golden Glove Awards has he won?

Answer
Omar began playing in Cleveland in 1994.  He was acquired from Seattle in an off-season trade for Felix Fermin & Reggie Jefferson.  Gee, who got the better end of that deal?!

Omar won his 7th consecutive Gold Glove last year.

For more info on Omar, check out his bio on the Cleveland Indians website:

or my own website (I have interesting details about the Seattle trade):
