A more recent pick would be Nomar. Guy was an absolute terror at the plate.

Hell yeah, Boggs was under-rated. Check out his 1987 season and then explain to me how he came in 9th in the MVP race.

He's a modern statisticians dream player.

Boggs was also much better defensively, then he ever got credit for. Even in his earlier years when he was getting charged with a lot of errors, his range factor was always excellent.

Totally! That man was all about taking walks before it was cool

Pete Rose gets a lot of love for longevity but the man had some serious years, including at least 3 batting titles (I think that�s it).
