Jonathan Lucroy had a successful career that lasted for 12 seasons. However, his best season was in 2014, when he played for the Milwaukee Brewers, the team that drafted him.

Lucroy made his debut for the Milwaukee Brewers in 2010 and mostly played as a catcher. He won the starting job in 2011, but it was in 2014 when he had his best year. In that season, he led the National League in doubles (53), had 176 hits, went to his first All-Star Game, and was fourth in the MVP voting. Although he made it to the All-Star Game once again in 2016, he was traded to Texas after that.

For the rest of his career, Lucroy was mostly used for depth by various teams, including Colorado, Oakland, Los Angeles (Angels), Chicago (Cubs), Boston, Philadelphia, Chicago (AL), Washington, and Atlanta.

In addition, Lucroy was part of the United States team that won the 2017 World Baseball Classic Championship. While his career might not have been enough for him to be inducted into the Hall of Fame, it was still a good one.
