In part one of this series, we took a look at five of the most underrated players in Boston Red Sox history. These were players who Red Sox fans liked (or maybe they didn’t) during their careers who are now overlooked for their contributions to the team. As with anything to do with discussing players who are underrated (or overrated), there is a slight degree of subjectivity involved.
In looking at both who I consider to be underrated and overrated in Red Sox history, I’ve been trying to be as objective as possible by using statistics to bolster my arguments in either case.
