Baseball Players who Played for Diamondbacks and Blue Jays
There is a good chance that if you’ve found this page then you’re playing the Immaculate Grid.
That also means that today’s grid has asked for players that have played for both the Arizona Diamondbacks and Toronto Blue Jays.
And, it also means that you’re probably stuck on this particular box and you’re looking for a little help. Sound about right so far?
Well, good news, you’re in the right place.
I’ve done some research and have found a player who played on both the Diamondbacks and Blue Jays.
Roberto Alomar
Roberto Alomar is the quintessential Immaculate Grid player. Not only did he play for 7 different teams (Blue Jays, Padres, Indians (now Guardians), Orioles, Mets, White Sox and Diamondbacks) he played in All-Star games for 4 of them!
Alomar was an exceptional all-around player, earning 12 All-Star selections, 10 Gold Glove Awards, and 4 Silver Slugger Awards. He amassed over 2,700 hits, scored over 1500 runs and stole over 450 bases.
Alomar was also instrumental in the Blue Jays’ back-to-back World Series championships in 1992 and 1993, and was inducted into the Baseball Hall of Fame in 2011.
Todd Stottlemyre
Todd Stottlemyre was a ’90s-era pitcher who is probably remembered by most as a Blue Jay but also pitched for the Diamondbacks, Cardinals, A’s and Rangers.
Stottlemyre is arguably one of the best pitchers to never make an All-Star game. He accumulated 130 wins and over 1,500 strikeouts, but never received an all-star nod.
However, he was a key component of the Blue Jays’ back-to-back World Series championships in 1992 and 1993.
Orlando Hudson
Orlando Hudson, an infielder known for his exceptional defense at second base, played in Major League Baseball from 2002 to 2012. He showcased his skills with several teams, including the Toronto Blue Jays, Arizona Diamondbacks, and Los Angeles Dodgers.
Hudson was a two-time All-Star (Diamondbacks, Dodgers) and four-time Gold Glove Award winner (Blue Jays, Diamondbacks, Dodgers), demonstrating his outstanding fielding abilities. With a career batting average of .273 and over 1300 hits, he was also a very capable hitter.
