Statistically, neither Hosmer or Moose were out of this world. And they both had rather short "great" seasons. But they were ours...homegrown prospects many fans had followed and put their hopes into for years. Throw in the fact they all came up together at the same time, were extremely fan friendly AND the team had crazy good success for that 3 year stretch and it starts to make sense.
So yeah, we probably overrate them compared to how the rest of MLB would view them But that's the point of being a fan and putting your heart into a team.
