Hoyt Wilhelm was only with the Baltimore Orioles for four and half seasons, but he was an All-Star in three of them, and it was his stint there that would later propel him into Cooperstown.

Faced with the dreadful task of being the player who had to replace Brooks Robinson at Third Base, Doug DeCinces had some Gold Glove worthy years with Baltimore.  The advanced metrics show that he was worthy of consideration, but traditionally he wasn’t there.

Chris Hoiles would play his entire 10-year career with the Baltimore Orioles, and defensively he was highly regarded not just for his acumen with a glove but his skill in handling a staff.

In keeping with the excellent defensive players that the Baltimore Orioles had in the 1960s and 1970s, Davey Johnson was a three-time Gold Glove winner (1969-71) and would also be named to three All-Stars (1968-70).
