Pick the most overrated player in AL?

Question

Pick the most overrated player in first place in al those teams are the following

West- angles

East- rays

Central- Chicago

Answer 1

Angels - Garret Anderson.He kinda lost the power he had from his 2003&2005 year.

Rays - Evan Longoria.yes,he's good but HES A FREAKING ROOKIE.once he's played at least 5 years then you can start blabbing on how amazing he is.

White Sox - Paul Konerko.im a Sox fan and even I think he sucks

Answer 2

angels i dnt think they have any

rays floyd

chicago derek lee

and im a rays fan. and idk y the rays spent so much money on floyd!!!!

Answer 3

Angels - K Rod - the "save" is an overrated stat.  I don't think closing pitchers should get the props they get.  They maybe come in 4 games a week and pitch for 3 - 5 outs.

Rays - Navarro - He just isn't good.  He was in the All-Star game!!! Why?  

Chicago - Cabrera - He is way too streaky for my taste. You can find a better fielder on almost every team and a better bat to go with it...

Answer 4

First you ask for player, then you only mention teams.

I will assume you actually want the overrated team based on the division leaders.

I think it's Chicago.  I don't think they are this good.  They are surviving on power alone.

Angels are a solid team and the Rays really don't have anyone outstanding this year, so a slump of 1 player won't kill them.

Answer 5

Angels-Chone Figgans

Rays-Ben Zorbrist

Central-Jermaine Dye

Answer 6

Rays-Carlos Pena

White Sox-Paul Konerko

Angels-Gary Matthews Jr.

Answer 7

Angels - KRod.

i think he's a top 5 closer, don't get me wrong, but all this record business is making people he's the greatest ever. it's more of a function of how many oppurtunities he's getting. for all we know lidge or rivera would have more saves than KRod if they were on they angels. both those closers are perfect on their respective teams.

Rays- Carl Crawford

i just don't think he's as good of a hitter as most people do. i could be wrong. but i think he's got a decent bat and his blinding speed causes people to over rate him. .267 average is way down this year too.

White Sox- Mark Buehrle

why is this guy thought of as such a good pitcher? please explain.

2006:

12-13 4.99era

2007:

10-9 3.63 era

2008:

8-9 3.69 era

i know that this will be his 7th straight season with 10+ wins, and i'll agree that there is something to be said for that. but don't forget he's lost at least 8 in every one of those seasons too.

Answer 8

Angels: Mike Napoli

Rays: Jason Bartlett (Navarro deserved to be an All-Star a lot more than Varitek, Varitek is batting around .220, while Navarro is hitting over .300)

White Sox: A.J. Pierzynski
