You're not the only one ... I haven't read any of Neyer's new book, either.

I thought the list was pretty fair, and maybe I'm just partial to the best CFer since ... probably Max Carey, but I thought Van Slyke could've been on Neyer's team over Carey. Van Slyke was much better than Carey defensively, looking at the numbers. What do I know, though.

Rob actually addresses that issue in his book. But you will have to buy it to find out what he says....:D
