Benny.....who are you comparing him to?

Murphys has the second highest WAR among NL 2nd basemen.

Murphy leads the NL among 2nd basemen in runs scored.

He leads the NL in walks among 2nd baseman.

Murphy is 2nd in stolen bases in the NL among 2nd baseman.

Murphy has the 3rd highest batting average of NL 2nd basemen.

He is 3rd in RBI among 2nd basemen in the NL.

And you said he's a singles hitter with little pop?, yet he is 3rd among NL 2nd Basemen in Slugging.

As for defense....

His RdTot is 3rd in the NL behind Brandon Phillips and Dee Gordon

If that is underrated, I can name 12 teams that would love to have him.
