I guess what I was getting at is that he WAS a top 30 player but he IS perceived as a top 10 player and is probably now only a top 30-60 player so in that sense it is fair to consider him overrated.

I still think he’s a great player though.

Ichiro is only that good if you believe his FanGraphs UZR, and there’s a lot of evidence to suggest that he’s not nearly that good (or very good at all) on defense.

Well, let’s see Rollins got the MVP, GG and SS in 2007…and didn’t deserve any of them (Holliday, Tulowitzki, Hanley Ramirez). This year, he got the GG even though Tulowitzki was better…so, yes, he is over-rated…still and great player, though

It seems that the “Rollins is overrated” talk began after the 2007 when the BBWAA voted him as MVP and sabremetric community panned the choice. Now following a 2008 that was predictably worse than 2007 and a 2009 that was unpredicatbly worse than 2008, it seems like the “Rollins is overrated” bandwagon has grown so crowded that he’s probably a little underrated.
