Wright In Rare Company : Gehrig, Ruth and DiMaggio

Tonight, as David Wright collected his 1000th hit in his 868th game, with 143 homeruns, he became one of only three other New York baseball players in history to collect those numbers in that many games or less.  Only Gehrig, Ruth and DiMaggio are in that same category.

Quite an accomplishment for Wright, putting him among the greatest players in New York baseball history.

    And this is why I am confused when people say he is overrated.

    Will Wright dethrone Zimmerman for gold glove, or for that matter silver slugger?
