33. Albie Pearson

Albie Pearson was the American League Rookie of the Year in 1958 with Washington, but his arrival to the Angels in 1961 as part of the Expansion Draft was not met with a lot of fanfare as his two previous years with the Senators and Orioles were not great.  With Los Angeles, he was able to recapture some of that rookie magic, albeit for a brief time.

Standing at only 5' 5" and the shortest man in baseball at the time, Pearson was a Major League starter again, and the Outfielder batted .288 with a .420 OBP in his 1961 comeback season.  He followed that with a league-leading 115 Runs Scored in 1962 and was an All-Star in 1963, posting career-highs in Hits (176) and Batting Average (.304).  After an injury-plagued year in 1964, Pearson declined and was released in 1966.

With the Angels, Pearson had 618 Hits with a Batting Average of .275.
