Limiting to players I saw and guys a developed I liked for various reasons:
Missing the cut A. J. as backup catcher, Enos Slaughter as PH, Floyd Robinson OF, Pete Ward & Ernie Banks as utilitymen, and Gordie Coleman 1B. When Big Klu went to the Angels they became my second favorite team and I followed them til Gene Autry died. Minoso and Fisk are my all time faves. Thomas is the only hitter is a Sox Uniform whose ABs got me to stop what I was doing and watch. Aaron is the "best player I ever saw."
My rationale for making this claim is that I never saw anyone else make the game seem so effortless.
