Lester Taylor, SS
Taylor was among the best batters to ever play in the major leagues, holding his own against the careers of Tomas Reed and Johan Velez. Like Reed, he was a 1st overall pick. Like Velez, he was a high school selection - from North Buncombe, not Denmark as Velez was. He won two MVP awards, one gold glove, and 6 silver sluggers. His performance sent him to 10 all-star games. Unfortunately for him, the Marlins World Series win happened in 1946 after he had left the team.

Steve Flores, RHP
Flores was an elite pitcher throughout his career and finished with similar JAWS numbers as other Hall-of-Famers Verne Rodriquez and Devon McFadden. He was the Pitcher of the Year once, won two World Series championships, and was selected to 7 all-star games, all as a member of the New York Mets. Flores originally signed a contract out of Colombia as a 16-year-old.

Ted Lowe, 3B
Lowe was the Phillies 1st overall pick in 1927 out of Apopka High School and became a top-10 3B in MLB history with similar numbers to Mohamed Sabry and Deion Lee. He won two gold gloves, two silver sluggers, and went to one all-star game.

Ezequias Flores, 2B
Flores was drafted 3rd overall out of Fresno State in 1928 by the Dodgers and spent nearly his entire career with the organization. He made four all-star teams, won 5 silver sluggers, three World Series, and was a two-time playoff MVP. He was especially instrumental in the Dodgers' 1934 championship. When compared to other 2B in MLB history, he falls just below the HOF line, near Esteban Moreno and Cezar Castaneda.
Career Stats: 7862 PA, 1944 H, 136 HR, 96 SB, .350 wOBA, 116 wRC+, -12.9 ZR, 42.8 WAR, 36.3 JAWS
Hart Dykeman, RHP
Dykeman had an impressive career with the Orioles but didn't quite have the needed peak for the HOF. He had a career somewhat similar to Martin Knisley, who also just missed out on the Hall. Dykeman was drafted 4th overall by the Orioles out of Monterey High School in 1926 and became the best pitcher in team history. He went to two all-star games and won a gold glove.
