Ranked a little lower than you would initially think mainly because of his lack of defensive contributions and overall bWAR, Garrett Atkins was with the Colorado Rockies for all but his final season in the Majors. Atkins would have three straight seasons with 20 or more Home Runs, two of which also saw him tally 100 RBIs. He also hit for a decent average, twice going batting over .300. He would actually receive a few MVP votes in 2006. Again, if only he could play defense more consistently!
