When you talk about overrated vs underrated you also have to consider what a player's team needs from him. When the season was on the line, Manny sucked as bad as anyone else in Boston. In today's game 45 hrs is good, not great. Players reach the 40 hr/yr plateau regularly. Ortiz was the only player who actually played up to his potential. But Boston has always been full of people in the front office who are more interested in team politics than winning games. Now, I know you're all in love with Gay-Rod, but to call him the greatest player of our era is ridiculous. I don't care who said it first.
