Bob,
Again, I don't want to give anything away in the book but Schmidt is much better than you think if you look at OBA as opposed to batting average and he also led the lead in home runs 8 times.
You should read the book (Clearing the Bases by Allen Barra). Short essay-like chapters. You may not agree with his thesis but he makes some interesting points. He definitely raised my opinion of Schmidt.
