Jeter - not overrated. Not the best player in baseball, but not overrated. Time will tell if he's hall-of-fame calibre. If his career ended now, he'd be in.

Now to Bonds.

Barry Bonds can be a dick, but he is far from overrated. I'm not saying that because i'm a Giants fan.

And to whoever said he can't run anymore and all he can do is hit. It's not solely the supplements. It's also called age. He's nearing 40 years old and is still batting around .350

BTW, he does more than hit homeruns. He's a solid ALL AROUND hitter. But when he's that old, the legs give out on you. They give out on ANYBODY.
