Kevin Gregg

While Kevin Gregg was certainly a journeyman pitcher, he did record 20 Saves in a season six times; though the fact that he did that for four different teams (one of which in two different runs) shows off that no MLB General Manager viewed him as an elite talent.  Still, he recorded a more than respectable 177 Saves over his career.

Jeremy Affeldt

Jeremy Affeldt is one of the few players who can boast three World Series Rings, all of which were won with the San Francisco Giants.  Affeldt was used predominantly in the bullpen over his career, often in the set-up role and was very good at it.  The southpaw would have a 0.86 ERA over 33 playoff games.

Jason Marquis

Jason Marquis would win 124 over his career, and had a stint of six seasons where he had more than 11 Wins.  Marquis, was never considered an elite pitcher, but he was named to the National League All Star Team in 2009.

Grant Balfour

Australian born Pitcher, Grant Balfour would hit his stride late in his career when after a near ten year run in middle relief he won the closer’s role with the Oakland Athletics.  Balfour would be named an All Star in 2013 and would tally 38 Saves for the season.
