Looks like a really bad list to me, meant mainly to 'stir up controversy' i.e. piss people off.

I didn't realize others rated VTek highly.

I thought he was under-rated as people pointed to his low CS% (and high WP/PBs for a couple years with Wake) and called him a poor defender.

No, meant to have a topic to debate.

Not sure why it would piss people off considering there is one from each team. It's not like one team was singled out.

I think many sox fans had a tendency to overrate him. They constantly pointed to his record no hitters caught and always clamored for him to move into a manager position.

That's not really the issue. I get pissed off if I see players from other teams get unfairly slagged too.

I'm not saying it's not a good topic. I'm just dubious about the guy that made up this particular list when I see some of the selections.

[Bellhorn04]

For one thing, this guy is totally hung up on batting average. I'm not saying you have to use really advanced metrics, but OPS has pretty much replaced batting average.

[Bellhorn04]

And he's slagging Nolan Ryan-for his W-L record. That says it all. This guy is a Neanderthal.

I read the first name on the list and stopped reading.
