#1 I meant to put Millwood as overrated. He sucks dong.
#2 Carpenter and Halladay are underrated because they dont have the ace status like they should. And like you said, they are both Cy Young Winners.
#3 If by overrated you mean Vidro isn't as good as Soriano, I agree. But he's definetly underrated. During his prime he was a perennial .310 hitter.
Carpenter and Halladay don't have the ace status?
Vidro's prime was half a decade ago. Now, he's just an overrated, injury-prone, good-for-nothing, no defensive skills 2B stuck on a deadbeat team.Originally Posted by Dry1313
overated- carlos beltran, ralpheal furcal
underated- moises alou, trot nixon
he's probably one of the luckiest players in baseball history, he basically got that huge contract cause he hit 7 HRs in the NLCS, he's an 270-280 career hitterOriginally Posted by ghettochild
Overrated
Kerry Wood
Dusty Baker
Mark Prior
Reason--- Blame the Manager....
Underrated
Ryan Freel
Chad Tracy
Jamie Moyer
2003 Hybrid World Champion (115-47 reg season, 11-4 playoffs)
TBL: Anaheim Angels 2006-present (238-244 regular season, 1 division title)
MSL: St Louis Cardinals 2013-present (2734-2936 regular season, 5 division titles, 2 championships)
TSSL: Seattle Mariners 2006-2029, Pittsburgh Pirates 2030-present (209-277, 5 division titles w/SEA, 1 championship w/SEA)
Chad Tracy prolly had the most invisible 27 homerun season ever.
Marshall: MILSWANCAs?
Ted: Wait, I can get this. Mothers I'd like to sleep with and never call again.

I'd say Jamie Moyer has been underrated through most of his career, but it's hard to underrate a guy who sucks now.
Overrated: ARod - has done nothing in the postseason.
Underrated: KRod - you don't hear much from him and then bam, you see him at 40+ saves. He gets no love when closers are concerned.

What about his buddy Tony Clark? He had 30 homers.Originally Posted by Kingdom_of_Zito
So a-rod is overated just because he hasn't done anything in the postseason? wow how ilogical is that? Too judge player based on postseason. So whatever the player does in the regular season playin 150+ games, winning MVPs is nothing? he gets paid to play in the regular season if his team makes it to the playoffs thats an extra. You cant blame a team failure soley on a single playerOriginally Posted by redsfan28
I'm taking a stab at this:
Underrated: Shea Hillenbrand - His OPS isn't the greatest but he racks up doubles and doesn't strike out a whole lot.
Overrated: Matt Holliday - Can't hit away from Coors Field. He deserves mention here over Blalock and Soriano because awefullspellare named Holliday as one of his underrated players.
