That makes a lot of things totally worthless then, no?

Only if you define irrelevant and worthless the same.
But no, I would not take 25 players of Eckstein's statistical profile over 25 players of A-Rod's statistical profile. However, 25 players of A-Rod's personality would seem to have as much a chance of personality dysfunctionality keeping them from winning a World Series, as the talent level of those 25 players would have of getting to that point in the first place.
I'm not the only one who considers A-Rod subtraction by addition, either.

Christ, how spelled out does this have to be for you?
Would you rather have 25 pricks who are all the best player at their position or 25 nice guy spark plugs who are just above replacement level?
This is a silly [censored] argument and I get tired of dealing with stupid [censored] people.
