lets not start another A-Rod arguement unless its in the appropriate thread thats already been started. If you're going to do this continue with it in the other one.

True, I was just trying to get him to understand that if you hit 300 you're pretty damn good.

[NatsNSoxFan]

I understand im just making a point, also, just cause you dont have a career .300 average doesn't mean you aren't a HoF'er

[johnsondc]

A player can make the HOF for many different reasons and/or abilities.

[NatsNSoxFan]

I know that and i think everybody that has watched baseball regularly knows that i was just making a point.

[johnsondc]

And you made an accurate point which I agree with.

Overrated:A-rod (he's supposed to be the best and deleiver a championship and hasn't)
Underrated: Travis Hafner (you never hear about him outside of one Sports Illustrated article)

LOL. Manny is a great fielder huh?

[NatsNSoxFan]

i never said he was a good fielder.

Underatted: Travis Hafner-Lance Berkman

Overatted: Jim Thome- Andruw Jones

I would say A-Rod as overatted but I think IMO anyway a lot of that has to do with where he plays.
