Nonsense. Gunnar and Felix are elite for sure. And probably Holliday.

The list is strange. Marcus Semien maaaaybe bordered on elite for a couple years there, but he's going to be freakin 33 next week and he's locked into Texas's lineup for another 5 years at $124m.

 

That's not a lot to brag about for a guy whose speed is one of his greater assets. 

 

As for the O's? I could see an argument where Gunnar's glove puts him into elite status. Would've liked to see Bradish and G-Rod in the above average group too (which they clearly are). Bautista not being elite is LOL, too.

Unless Bradish gets serious consideration for Cy Young I think he's always going to be underrated. He doesn't have a killer fastball, his strikeout rate is good but not great, he doesnt really stand out on statcast, and he didnt come up as a highly touted prospect. It's a little silly but it is what it is.

Doesn't Bradish generally rank very high with regard to stuff+ or whatever stat they call it?
