Arizona Diamondbacks All-Time Top 50: #17, Stephen Drew

It seems like my running theme, so far, is "what could have been?". I wrote about Chad Tracy back on January 15th and part of the article's focus was around how good Chad Tracy could have been had he not been blessed with terrible knees. Well, the Diamondbacks have had plenty of "what could have been?" candidates and Stephen Drew is another great example of one.

From the get-go, Drew appeared to be an enigma despite his rather, well, boring personality. He was a star at Floride State, a five-tool player that included being a hihg-average player with solid power and defense at the shortstop position.
