Todd Walker is fairly underrated. He makes contact, has a good OBP. He's almost perfect for the #2 slot in the batting order, yet no team seems to want him. The Cubs tried and, thankfully, failed to trade him in the offseason.

Trevor Hoffman has been for years. Everyone knows he's great but he doesn't get a lot of publicity. There's another thread about him and he almost seems like an afterthought(outside of San Diego)

Jason Giambi - I hate his guts for leaving Oakland, but he's slowly coming back to form after a huge dropoff.

I think Jack Wilson is very underrated. I've always liked the guy. He puts up decent offensive numbers for a shortstop and he's a whiz-kid in the field.

Why Rollins. He is very streaky and got a lot of publicity for his 36 game hitting streak. He certainly wasnt underrated at that time

I meant careerwise; as of now, no.
Why Rollins. He is very streaky and got a lot of publicity for his 36 game hitting streak. He certainly wasnt underrated at that time
Ditto Jimmy Rollins...
