Most Overrated Former Angels

[markb]

When do we start to throw Weaver into that list?????

 

Sorry, I really do not mean to knock Weaver, but he has not look good for his first two starts this season.

 

One of the best pitchers in baseball since 2010.  2 bad starts to open 2014 - OVERRATED

 

The word "overrated" is misused so often that the whole idea of this thread makes my eye twitch, but this is one of the most egregious examples I've seen.

Funny....i wonder what the percentage of all ball players have their career tumble and dive by age 33-35? I willing to bet age had a lot more to.do with it than steroids.

 

Just to clarify, I'm talking about members of the 2002 Angels team who left MLB altogether by that age.  A number of them walked away in reasonably good health, good stats, and with sizable offers on the table to keep playing.

At least we denied Barroids his only real shot at a WS in 02, so whatever it took is fine by me.

Wally Joyner.

 

He was extremely popular, but he never lived up to the promise of his first two seasons here.
