He also tops my list as worst fantasy draft pick this year. Contract year should have meant success.

Can you imagine a guy with at least 500 home runs, maybe even 600+ homers. A guy that wins 15 or more gold gloves. A guy that was the youngest player in baseball history to hit a home run in the world series.

A guy with a resume that can stack up to MAYS, MANTLE, WILLIAMS, AARON and others.

But at the same time, does not even get the respect in his own era that he deserves. Heck, you even have people who say hes not a HOFer!

Wow, we are looking at the most underated player in the history of baseball.

At the same time, you have a light hitting SS named Ozzie Smith being praised as one of the top 50 players in the history of the game.

Funny how that works.

But in order to be the most underated player of all-time, you have to be very underated

This is obviously in reponse to Jayson Stark's article...i would assume?

The thing I don't understand...many read the title of the article, didn't read the article...then got defensive.

Its not like Stark said he was horrible...in fact, if you asked Stark he would say Jones is a very good player...just overrated, which isn't necessarily a bad thing.

What exact points in Stark's article did you disagree w/?

i'm betting Chop didn't read the Stark article and is merely responding to the thread title that Andru Jones is the most overrated player of all time.

Just a hunch. Chances are he reads this post and goes and reads the article so he can say i'm wrong
