Most overrated/underrated player in the Majors.

[BatsareBugs]

Who do you guys think is overrated/underrated in baseball? I think Jeromy Burnitz is overrated and that Mark Kotsay was underrated. I want to hear your thoughts.

Re: Most overrated/underrated player in the Majors.

Ichiro is overrated. He's good. In fact, I think he's very good. But the way people talk about him, it's like they think he's the greatest hitter that ever lived. What would his average be without the ridiculous amount of infield hits he gets? He hit .320 something last year & had over 60 infield hits. 60 freakin infield hits! Granted, a hit is a hit, getting on base is getting on base, but when you get an infield hit, you didn't hit the ball that well.

I love Ichiro, I'm glad he plays for the Mariners, I think he was actually deserving of that 2001 MVP.... but he's a little overrated.

How many of those infield hits were bunts?
You dont exactly need to knock the *smurf* outta the ball for a bunt . .

I'd say Eric Milton is pretty overrated. He's never had his ERA under 4.32 and his career ERA is league average.

Derek Jeter is also overrated.
