Paul Molitor
Paul Molitor, who played from 1978 to 1998, spent 15 seasons with the Brewers and 3 each with the Blue Jays and Twins. Molitor was an extraordinary hitter, racking up over 3,300 hits, 234 home runs, and 4 individual seasons with over 200 hits (Brewers 2, Blue Jays 1, Twins 1).
He was a seven-time All-Star (Brewers, Blue Jays) and the World Series MVP in 1993, when he helped lead the Blue Jays to their second consecutive championship.
Known for his versatility on the field and his exceptional hitting ability, Molitor’s stellar career earned him a spot in the Baseball Hall of Fame in 2004.

Matt Stairs
Matt Stairs had a lengthy Major League career that spanned from 1992 to 2011, during which he played for 12 different teams, essentially making him an Immaculate Grid Hall-of-Famer.
Known for his power-hitting abilities, primarily as a pinch-hitter, he hit 265 home runs over his career and holds the record for the most pinch-hit home runs in MLB history with 23. Stairs had a career batting average of .262 with an OPS of .832, and recorded 899 RBIs.
Notably, in the 2008 postseason with the Philadelphia Phillies, he hit one of the most famous home runs in Phillies history, helping the team move onto the World Series that year.
Daniel Vogelbach
Daniel Vogelbach was selected by the Chicago Cubs in the second round of the 2011 MLB Draft. He is a first baseman but has primarily filled the role of designated hitter, who has played for the Mariners, Brewers, Blue Jays, Pirates and Mets.
In his MLB career, Vogelbach has shown power at the plate, highlighted by his All-Star selection in 2019 while with the Mariners. In that season, he hit 30 home runs and drove in 76 runs, batting .208 with a .341 on-base percentage.
Vogelbach has been known for his strong batting eye and home run ability. His defensive limitations have often led him to be used as a designated hitter in the American League.
