104. Paul Konerko

Paul Konerko is one of the most revered Chicago White Sox players of all-time, and he should be.  Konerko was the heart of a team that won the 2005 World Series winning the ALCS MVP in the process.  Konerko could hit for power (439 Home Runs), had 2,340 Hits, 1,412 RBIs and a .486 Slugging Percentage.  

Ryan Ludwick

While Ryan Ludwick might struggle to make the Hall of Fame ballot, he does have a career to be proud of.  In 2009, he would post his best year, making the All Star Team and securing Silver Slugger honors while he was paying with the St. Louis Cardinals.

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.
