I cannot think of any real example of where a HOF player was actively underrated and their prices then rose to the level of their statistical play.
Guys who have risen tend to rise with the market. Much has been made of Mays pricing lately, but before his rise he was already the number 2 or 3 non-rookie player in all his sets. Sure, he should be #1 instead of #2 statistically but it’s difficult to call that underrated.
Players either get popular or they don’t, objective statistics rarely dethrone the overrated or elevate the underrated in a popularity contest.
