Overrated/Underrated

[ghettochild]

how are carpenter and halladay underrated if they're both cy young winners

[Kingdom]

lotsa LOL at kevin millwood

[DirtyKash]

Jose Vidro = insanely overrated

[realmofotalk]

labeling an injury-prone player overrated

[Dry1313]

#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?

#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.

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.

overated- carlos beltran, ralpheal furcal

underated- moises alou, trot nixon

[GiantsFanatic]

how is beltran underrated, he's got one of the biggest contracts in baseball, and he's hitting .295, which, compared to last season, is overrated.

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 hitter

Overrated
Kerry Wood
Dusty Baker
Mark Prior

Reason--- Blame the Manager....

Underrated
Ryan Freel
Chad Tracy
Jamie Moyer

[Kingdom]

Chad Tracy prolly had the most invisible 27 homerun season ever.

[Saber]

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.

Chad Tracy prolly had the most invisible 27 homerun season ever.

What about his buddy Tony Clark? He had 30 homers.

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 player

[realmofotalk]

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.
