Jacoby Ellsbury played entirely in the American League elite where he played mostly with the Boston Red Sox and later for the New York Yankees.  Ellsbury first came up in the 2007 season when he was called up in June of 2007 and would make the starting lineup and would help the Red Sox win the World Series where he batted .438. 

J.J. Hardy was a two-time All-Star who was one of the better defensive Shortstops of his day and four times over his career he had a Defensive bWAR over 2.0 that placed him in the top eight of his respective league.  Hardy was a two-time All Star (2007 & 2013), the second of which took place with the Baltimore Orioles where he had the best part of his career.  Hardy won three Gold Gloves with Baltimore (2012 to 2014) and he would also win the 2013 Silver Slugger Award.  Five times he would finish with 20 or more Home Runs and he had 1,488 Hits over his career.  His career On Base Percentage of .305 does however leave a lot to be desired.

Huston Street would be named the American League Rookie of the Year in 2005 when the Oakland Athletic would record 23 Saves.  Street would remain a closer for the majority of his career and he would have a 37 Save Season with Oakland in 2006, 35 with Colorado in 2009 and would later be a two-time All-Star with the San Diego Padres, the second of which would see him have a career high 41 Saves when he was traded to the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim late in the year.  Street would have four seasons where he finished in the top ten of Win Probability Added and would retire with 324 Saves.

Glen Perkins is one of the rare players who can say that he played all 12 of his seasons in Major League Baseball for one team and from 2006 to 2017 he did exactly that as a member of the Minnesota Twins.
