He's improved every season of MLB pitching. Last year, he walked just 80 in 225 innings. I think he deserves a higher control rating then 11. I would also raise his stuff rating.

His personality says he's selfish, but everything I've read about him is the opposite. He's the leader of the pitching staff, and takes that role seriously. He's not someone I would consider a classic "selfish" player.

I'm not saying he's elite or anything, but he's knocking on the door and should be rated as one of the top 20 starters in the game.
Personalities are not rated. After all, how can anyone know enough about a true player's personalities to rate players. It's random. As for Romero, he is the Blue Jays ace but put him on a lot of other teams and he is a number 2 guy. I think he is top 50 which makes a 3 star seem just about right. That being said, remember what markus said in his original post. We are only looking for vastly underrated and overrated players. Not the difference of 3 stars and 3.5 stars.
