The President Refugee. Davey Valentine said:. But Wright was overrated. Bod Rarajas moderate italian salumi. Bruce Wayne Refugee. No star would complain about their team building a brand new stadium that went against his natural and power approach? Wright excelled at going the other way and this moronic franchise built a new stadium with a ft alley exactly where their star likes to hit the ball.
Couldn't have imagined of a dumber idea. Bod Rarajas said:. The President said:. Especially after the Mets became losers again after If you put Wright on the same exact Yanks teams all things being equal between him and Jeter in terms of age, length of career etc.
Wright would be a first ballot HOF'r. He would have hit HR's a year playing in either Yankee Stadium and would have knocked in runs a year most likely while batting close to He may have had 3, hits as well.
Aside from a few years, he was playing on damn near triple A teams while Jeter was on an all star team every year. But Jeter did what he did. Can never take anything away from him and was clutch as they come. He owes Tex a few rib steak dinners for making sure he did not look like a complete horses ass in the field for his last few seasons.
Longrod Von Schlongpepper said:. I'm a Wright fan but his candle burned out early but his hype didn't. I expect some poops for this lol. His performance in that tournament was really good and it coincided with his return to form in and I never felt he got his due when he was one of the best players in the game when healthy. No one is saying Wright belongs in the HOF. But aside from the injuries he was on a hall of fame trajectory for most of his career, even with the less than desirable initial Citi Field numbers.
He needed to be healthy and produce like an all-star in his 30s to at least his mid 30s , but unfortunately it didn't materialize and he was basically done after age Well this is just anti NY bullshit. Wasn't even really overrated by Mets fans. DennisCook Refugee. He is overrated by the Mets and the fans. Naming him captain was overrating him and wanting him to be manager was overrating him. Playing "what if" with his numbers and changing his team so his career looks better is overrating him.
Lol, people don't understand what overrated means. Likwit Bourbon Repository. DennisCook said:. View attachment Not even really sure what Wright should be getting blame for on that play. He should get some shit for the error in Game 1 of that series and not hitting well in either of his postseasons. His defense was a bit overrated in his prime. And when it comes to the World Series, the Mets have been there more recently than the Yankees. They lost to the Kansas City Royals in On paper, the Yankees are loaded and look as if they honestly have a chance to win.
But the last few years have always ended up with the Yankees being a day late and a dollar short when it comes to getting back to the Fall Classic. We get it. New York is a Yankee town. The Yankees have won 27 championships and the Mets just two. It has mostly always been a slaughter when it came to which team wins the back pages of the NYC tabloids.
Yes, the Yankees have the hardware and the prestige. But the Mets now have the loot to make New York a two baseball team town again. And it will be the Mets, not the Yankees, in a ticker-tape parade sooner than later.
