Adam Lind

Adam Lind was a good Home Run hitter who had six 20 Home Run seasons, four of which were with the Toronto Blue Jays.  Lind was a streaky hitter but in 2009 he had a career year where he finished 15th in MVP voting, won the Silver Slugger and belted 35 Home Runs with 114 Runs Batted In.  He would finish his career with an even 200 Home Runs with 1,247 Hits.

Aaron Hill

Aaron Hill came up with the Toronto Blue Jays where the infielder had a good start until he suffered a concussion that took him out most of the 2008 season.  Hill rebounded with the nest year he ever had with career highs of 195 Hits, 26 Home Runs and 109 Runs Batted In while being named an All Star and American League Comeback Player of the Year.  Hill would later sign with the Arizona Diamondbacks and had a really good 2012, which came close to matching his previous best with the Jays in 2009.  He would finish his career with Milwaukee, Boston and San Francisco and retired with 1,501 Hits.

50. Dan Towler

Dan Towler played his entire professional football career with the Los Angeles Rams where after being a very late round pick (25th Round) and not expected to do much as a professional football player he did precisely that.  In 1951 to 1954 he finished in the top four in Rushing Yards including leading the NFL in that statistic in 1952 where he led the league not only in that metric but in Rushing Touchdowns.  Towler would again lead the National Football League in Rushing Touchdowns in 1954 making him one of the few players to ever finish atop in Rushing TDs. 

47. Lamar Lundy

Standing at 6' 7", Lamar Lundy might have been the most imposing figure of the Rams' famed "Fearsome Foursome" and was part of a revolution of sorts that helped to glorify modern defense.  The two-sport athlete (he was also a basketball player) was the first black player to receive an athletic scholarship at the University of Purdue, and he opted for a career in Pro Football much to the delight of Los Angeles Rams fans.
