most overrated player and pitcher

Posted By: Jeff Lichtman

John, I don't think Koufax would thank Alston for "pushing him into the majors." More likely, he'd curse him for not letting him pitch consistently when it was clear he had major league stuff.

I've never heard any major leaguer, manager or player claim that Nolan Ryan was the greatest pitcher they had ever seen -- yet I've heard a bunch say that about Koufax. And the word "overrated" never comes out of their mouths when discussing Koufax. Are you suggesting that you're in a better position to know greatness than they are?
