tough question but what team is better than most think and worse than most think. I am sure there are a ton of answers to this as none are clear cut.

Overrated - Seattle

Underrated - Toronto

overrated - NY Mets

underrated - Detroit of course is obvious but i don't know how a team with a 29-14 record can be underrated so my second choice is LA Dodgers, they got a great lineup and good pitching, just need to fix the bullpen (gagne will be back)

I don't think Seattle is even close to overrated because they are not rated highly at all. Who expected them to be good ? They use to be good but not anymore.

Most Overrated: Cleveland, Baltimore, Cubs (At the start of the year)

Most Underrated: Tampa Bay, Detriot and Colorado

Yankees overrated.
Tigers underrated, they're for real.

god with all my heart I hope you are right about the Tigers. I have watched or listened to almost every game and they have pitched beyond anyone's wildest dreams ( 8 shutouts so far this year, most in MLB).

One stat I like is they have outscored their opp's more than ANY team has in baseball. That has to mean they are at least a decent team. It's funny but every fans goal for the year was to win around 82-85 games and boy that now changed, that would be a HUGE dissapointment if that is what they ended up at.

Underrated: Rockies. They have a nice core of young hitters to go with much improved pitching. I think they will battle for the west right down to the wire.

Overrated: Yankees. No pitching = another year without a title. Their prices have been ridiculous at times this year. Would not be surprised if they missed the playoffs.

Kevin McClatchey and Dave Littlefield told me the Pirates were the most underrated baseball team.
