      Is this affecting the overall ranking of the page?

      If so how can I disallow them? We use Wordpress with the Joost SEO plugin, but I don't see a disallow option there for comments...

        Yes, all links on a page will lessen the link equity of all other links on the page, even if they are nofollowed or in the comments.

        Looks like each comment has 3 links each-- the name, date, and a reply link.  I would at least remove the date link-- I'm not familiar with Joost, but it should be fairly easy to edit in comments.php.
