You have to just chuckle over these
anonymous polls.
Derek Jeter was voted the most overrated player in baseball in a Sports Illustrated poll of over 495 major leaguers. Not surprisingly, both the Yankees New York Yankees captain and his manager could not care less.
Joining him on this dubious list was teammate Alex Rodriguez.
In the survey to be released in the June 23 issue, the Yankee shortstop got 10 percent of the vote. Teammate Alex Rodriguez was tied with Boston outfielder J.D. Drew for third with 7 percent.
Oddly enough, Jeter and A-Rod are so worthless, these same players would choose them to build a team around.
But in a clear case of opinions-are-like-you-know-what, when Sports Illustrated did a survey of "Whom would you pick to build your team around" just a week earlier, Rodriguez finished first and Jeter second. Make up your minds, fellas.
Professional jealousy, it appears, leaves many major leaguers very confused.
