45. Tim Hudson

After an excellent run with the Oakland Athletics, Tim Hudson would be traded to Atlanta, where he would win 113 of his 222 career Wins.  Hudson won at least 13 Games in each of his first three seasons, and in late 2008, he underwent Tommy John surgery.  While that ailment kept him out of baseball for a year, he rebounded in 2017 with his best season in years, including an All-Star appearance, a 17 Win season, and an ERA under 3.  He would finish fourth in Cy Young voting that year.   Hudson would win 16 Games over the next two seasons, and before signing with the San Francisco Giants after the 2013 Season, he recorded 997 Strikeouts as a Brave.

In 2018, Hudson was elected into the Braves Hall of Fame.

42. Jimmy Collins

Jimmy Collins did a lot of things beautifully on the baseball diamond that may not be considered sexy, but they went unnoticed, and he generated a Hall of Fame career out of it, which included five seasons with the Boston Beaneaters. 

After debuting for Boston in 1895, he was loaned to Louisville, only to return before the 1896 Season.  Collins would win the starting Third Base job, and he was considered to be one of the better defensive players at that position, which he showed by leading the NL in Defensive bWAR in 1899 and was in the top five as a Boston Beaneater three other times.  He was also very capable with the bat, an expert bunter, and led the NL in Home Runs (albeit with only 15) in 1898.  That year, he was seventh in Batting Average and second in Slugging Percentage.  His overall numbers with the team would see him generate 821 Hits with a .309 Batting Average.  His run with the Beaneaters ended when he jumped to the Boston Americans of the American League in 1901.

Collins would enter the Baseball Hall of Fame in 1945 when he was chosen by the Old Timers Committee.

Charlie Buffinton began his career with the Boston Red Stockings in 1882, and in the following year, when the team renamed themselves the Beanaters, Buffinton became a star Pitcher, where he would win 20 Games each year from 1883 to 1885.  The sinkerball specialist had an incredible 1884 campaign, going 48-16 with a 2.15 ERA and finishing third overall in bWAR among pitchers.  It should also be noted that Buffinton was a good hitter, batting .255 for Boston over his career.  Boston thought Buffinton was done after a bad 1886 season, and they sold him to the Philadelphia Quakers, where he rebounded and went on to win 233 Games.

Specifically, as a Beaneater, Buffinton went 104-70 with 911 Strikeouts.

34. Ezra Sutton

Ezra Sutton had a long career in professional baseball, in which he played 12 of his 18 seasons with the Boston Red Stockings/Beaneaters.  Sutton was a solid player who may not have been extraordinary, but he was consistent for a few seasons. From 1883 to 1886, he secured 130 or more hits each year, including a 162 Hit year in 1884, which led the National League.  Three of those years would see Sutton bat over .300, and he would have an overall collection of 1,161 Hits for the franchise.
