Same could be said for Ted... Only differences are... 1 Ted wasn't nearly the defensive player Joe D was... 2 Teds cards carry a significant premium.
I don't think there's another guy out there that was better, whose cards you can get for less

I think you read my mind regarding the most undervalued at the moment. I think that's because the primary focus of the hobby is on the pre-World War I cards, and Ted and Joe (what, 11 penants in 13 years, and ten world championships, just going by memory?) will have their day when that focus shifts, as it inevitably will, and their best and/or rarer cards look like real bargains in comparison to the giants in the former group.
Frank, I love it!!!
