who is the best baseball player in the major leagues and who is over rated in baseball and who is under rated?

Answer 1

The best player in baseball is Albert Pujols without any question. Not only is he the best hitter, but he also has a gold glove.

The most over rated player is Gary Matthews Jr. The guy made a web gem, he's not going to make the angels any better, he had a career year and still didn't even get a gold glove, he's garbage.

Most under rated player, probably becuase he's in canada, is Vernon Wells. All together, he is one of the best outfielders in baseball, he hits, fields, and does it consistantly.

Answer 2

There is no doubt that Johan Santana is the best player in the big leagues. Santana has dominated the major pitching categories over the past three years and, given his age, he is likely to continue dominating for many years to come.

As for the second part of your question, I would say that Derek Jeter is the most overrated and underrated player in MLB. While that may sound silly and impossible, it is very true. Many Derek Jeter fans think that he is much better than he is because they place too much emphasis on his "intangibles," which really doesn't mean anything. Also, many Jeter fans praise his defense, which really is well below average, his two consecutive gold gloves notwithstanding. But Jeter is also the most underrated because there are so many MLB fans who dislike him because he represents the hated Yankees. These fans refuse to admit that he is a tremendous player who excels in many facets of the game.

What the underraters and overraters should be able to agree on, however, is that Jeter is a fantastic player who will be in the HOF five years after he retires.

Answer 3

The best player in baseball is Johan Santana he is by far the best pitcher and the number 1 pick hands down by any major league coach if they could have 1 player of their choice for their team. He is the guy you put in when you need a guaranteed win even wins with a week team behind him the most dangerous weapon in baseball.

The most overrated player which i hate even hearing about his highly overpaid worthlessness is Alex Rodriguez. plain and simple iam not going to go into talking about him anymore cause that's just how it is you know why hes over rated.

and finally the most under rated player in baseball is probably Grady sizemore he is the perfect 5 tool player and really doesn't get the respect he deserves for all he provides a team kinda like Shawn Marion in basketball he doesn't have the highest number in any single category but is almost the best or the top in every single one. (a perfect fantasy player too)

Answer 6

provided that i'm a Tiger fan, i'd say Polanco. Polanco will possibly no longer get too plenty runs in or domicile runs, however the guy is a brilliant group participant. all of us comprehend how undesirable the Tigers did after Polanco injured his shoulder in Boston. The Tigers had a dropping checklist from then until ultimately the top of the 300 and sixty 5 days!

Answer 7

You can't really say who the best player is. You can have Ryan Howard, can hit the Home Runes but can't play defense.

You can have Derek Jeter, can hit, but lacks Home Run compacity (He averages about 13 a year).

Schmit, great pitcher, but lacks pitch speed. Liriano, great pitch speed, but lacks control.

Every player in the league has a weakness.

As for most overrated, it all depends on how you like that person.

Answer 10

Since im an Oak A's fan i have to say my boy SWISHER in the AL. In the NL i have to say HOWARD. The most overrated player is A-ROD b/c he gets paid so much money and still no RING. He always sucks in the playoffs.
