198. Al Rosen

Al Rosen made his first appearance for the Cleveland Indians in 1947, and this would be the only Major League team he ever played for.

226. Babe Herman

Babe Herman made his first appearance in the Majors with the Brooklyn Robins, and it was there where he established himself as one of the better power hitters in the National League.

229. Magglio Ordóñez

Magglio Ordonez proved to be a very good hitter over his fifteen-year career, with 2,156 Hits, a .308 career Batting Average, a Batting Title in 2007, and had good power numbers with three Silver Slugger Awards and a career Slugging Average over .500.  In 2007, Ordonez was the runner-up for the American League MVP Award, and he went to six All-Star games.  He was good player for a long time but his career bWAR of 38.5, while decent, is not really indicative of a Hall of Fame inductee by today’s standards.

266. Willie McGee

Willie McGee is one of the most important players in the St. Louis Cardinals in terms of the decade of the 1980s, but he was a lot more than a few good seasons as a Redbird.
