A dependable Catcher for years, Ramon Hernandez was named an All Star in 2003 with a bit of pop in his bat (169 Home Runs). The Venezuelan would lead the AL in Assists as a Catcher in 2006 and threw out the most baserunners that year too.

While Placido Polanco had a very good career in Major League Baseball and had over 2,000 Hits and a Silver Slugger Award, stats that would surprise many. Polanco was also a two time All Star and a two time Gold Glove recipient and while he was a very good player, he does not have Cooperstown credentials…though was a lot better than most people remember!  

A middle reliever for most of his career, Octavio Dotel spent fifteen years playing for thirteen teams. The Dominican Pitcher would win a World Series Ring with the St. Louis Cardinals and recorded 109 Saves with a 59 and 50 record.

While Miguel Tejada is a former MVP in Major League Baseball, he is also known as a PED user, a label that has kept PED users out of the Hall of Fame.

Forgetting that, Tejada is a man with a 46.9 bWAR and a multi-time Silver Slugger Award winner, and retired with close to 2,500 Hits. The Dominican has numbers that are very good, but realistically were not Hall of Fame level, regardless of his PED use. Still, this is a former MVP, an accolade that can not be taken away.
