Well wOBA was being researched in 2006 and came to a head in the popular book by Tom Tango "The Book", so that is a positive sign. WAR would follow shortly after. I just wonder who he thinks is overrating him. I wouldn't put him in the top 10 1B of all time, but I don't think many would. He would probably sit just outside my top 15. I think that is where is universally placed though amongst most fans.
EDIT: Off the top of my head he sits somewhere in the 12-14 range, but there might be a few names I'm forgetting.
