Three times an All-Star with the Texas Rangers, Toby Harrah was a very patient hitter who led the American League in Walks in 1977.  He would have three seasons with the Rangers where he blasted over 20 Home Runs and also had three seasons where he stole more than 20 bases.  Harrah secured 1,124 Hits, 124 Home Runs, and 154 Stolen Bases, and was inducted into the Rangers Hall of Fame in 2009.

“The Gambler” would have three runs with the Texas Rangers, where he would give them three All-Star seasons, one of which was at age 40.  Rogers spent thirteen of his twenty seasons as a Ranger where he had a very good record of 133 and 96 with 1,201 Strikeouts.  Rogers was named to the Rangers Hall of Fame in 2011.

With 2,230 Hits as a Texas Ranger, Michael Young led the American League twice in that category and had seven seasons where he reach the 200 Hit plateau.  Young would win the 2005 AL Batting Title and would be an All-Star seven times.  Despite his hitting acumen, Young was not the best defensive player (mostly he was inconsistent) and his OBP is a little low considering his Batting Average, which is why his rank may not seem high enough.

As of this writing, Young is the all-time franchise leader in Hits, Runs (1,085), Doubles (415), and Triples (55). Young was enshrined into the Rangers Hall of Fame in 2016.

A mystery for the good doctor is why hasn’t successful American sprinter, Allyson Felix received more attention than she has?  It looks like she will need to get some extra care from yours truly!
