Speaking of voting, I saw on EPSN last night that when MLB players were asked on a ballot who is the most over-rated player in all of Baseball, the choice was shocking:
Derrick Jeter
That surprises me, because I consider Pay-Rod, I mean A-Rod, as over-rated...And that is my opinion even though I am a Yanks fan!

I find that hard to believe. I think Derek Jeter is the biggest gamer in baseball today, adn I'm a Red Sox fan. That really surprises me that players would pick him. Another player that never seems to get the press he deserves is Todd Helton for the Rockies. I know it's rarified air there, but the numbers this guy has consistently put up are amazing!
