Bill Wegman would spend all eleven years of his Major League service with the Milwaukee Brewers.  Wegman was a solid control pitcher who would finish in the top ten in BB/9 five times.  His best season was in 1991 where he went 15 and 7 with a 2.84 ERA that was good enough to finish third in the AL.  That year, he won the Hutch Award, which is given annually to the player who exemplifies “fighting spirit and competitive desire”.  That alone tells you all you need to know about Bill Wegman and why Milwaukee never let him go.

Wegman may have had a losing record of 81-90, but he gave everything he had in those 1,482.2 Innings he played.
