242. Jim Perry

The older brother of Hall of Famer Gaylord Perry, Jim Perry, was an outstanding hurler worthy of consideration in his own right.

280. Hardy Richardson

Hardy Richardson was a 14-year veteran whose career slipped through the cracks of baseball history.  This is partly because it was so long ago, as his professional tenure was from 1879 to 1892.  Another part is because the best part of his career happened with two teams that haven't existed in well over a century, the Buffalo Bisons and the Detroit Wolverines.

291. Brad Radke

Playing his entire pro career with the Minnesota Twins, Brad Radke had a good career, and while he gained his share of Wins, it was his consistency that he is most remembered for.  

215. Del Pratt

Del Pratt had a great rookie campaign in 1912, where the then St. Louis Brown had 172 Hits and a .302 Batting Average.  The Second Baseman continued to do well, recording at least 159 Hits with 26 Stolen Bases and finishing first in Runs Batted In (103) in 1916.   That was a good initial run, but all was not well in the city of St. Louis.
