299. Brian Downing

Brian Downing played his entire professional career in the American League, where he was in the lineup as either a Catcher, Outfielder, or Designated Hitter.

282. Jim Sundberg

Jim Sundberg was known for his defensive skills.  So much so, that is how we wound up on this list.

264. Lenny Dykstra

Lenny Dykstra was a fan favorite, a hard-nosed baseball player whose nickname of “Nails” fit him perfectly.

201. Lefty O'Doul

Lefty O'Doul had a unique career, in that he began as a struggling Pitcher, who eked out 32 Games over five years (1918-23) on the Major League level on the mound.  These games were spent as either a New York Yankee or Boston Red Sox, but he was basically a minor league player through his 20s.  O’Doul’s 30s would be much more different.
