Raul Ibanez

While Raul Ibanez is not likely to go to the Baseball Hall of Fame, this one time All Star should be applauded for his longevity (he played until he was 42) and ability to adapt to other key roles to keep him in the game.  This would help him accumulate over 2,000 Hits and 300 Home Runs, and enough (even though his bWAR is only 20.1) to land a spot on the Hall of Fame ballot.

Nate McLouth

Nate McLouth is unlikely to make the Hall of Fame ballot, but he did put together an All Star year in 2008 where he led the National League in doubles and earned a Gold Glove. 

Marco Scutaro

Marco Scutaro would have a good career, which would be highlighted late during his time with the San Francisco Giants.  It was in the Bay Area where he would win the 2012 World Series and was on fire during the NLCS where he won the MLCS MVP.  The following season, the Venezuelan infielder would go to his first and only All Star Game.

Lyle Overbay

Lyly Overbay would have a solid Major League career where over fourteen seasons he would amass 1,355 Hits.  He would lead the National League in doubles in 2004.  With a sub 20 bWAR he might struggle though to make the Hall of Fame ballot.
