Most underrated and overrated player

Re: Most underrated and overrated player

Zimmerman is a solid 3B, its just what gets some people probably is the injuries he's had the last few years. People tend to start forgetting about a guy that gets hurt a lot.

Now I could be wrong, but to me it seemed like he was inferring it was Starting Pitcher Jordan Zimmermann. He's posted a 2.54 ERA in 156 IP this season with a very nice 4 K/BB ratio.

Miguel Cabrera is in no sense underrated what so ever, in fact he's one of the most talked about players in the game.

He's so good that even with all the press he gets, he's still underrated. :wink:

I agree on Willingham. The Twins got a bargain for a 2-3 WAR guy (although this year he's gonna hit 4), even though his defense is deplorable. But hey, that's what the DH position is for.

Scott Diamond looks pretty solid. Limits walks and gets ground balls. He's still a good pitcher, even if he isn't as good as his ERA.

And Willingham, same thing sort of. Injured a lot, and he puts up decent numbers most of the time but nothing outstanding. Yes, he hit 29 homeruns and drove in 98 runs last year, but he hit .246 with an OBP of .332.

That was the worst season of his career. And he had a .810 OPS. Which is pretty good for a players worst year.
