Billy Butler spent the bulk of his career with the Kansas City Royals where he has a decent run as their Designated Hitter.  Butler was a horrific fielder (thankfully he played in the American League) but he had some respectable offensive numbers over his career with 1,479 Hits and 147 Home Runs.  He would be named an All Star, a Silver Slugger and the Edgar Martinez Award winner in 2012.
