Not Sandberg. There was an earlier hint that the player's career started in 2000 or later.

Was Chase Utley a lead-off guy?

Not Chase Utley. He didn't lead off much for the Phillies. Usually it was Jimmy Rollins.

Ian Kinsler? I saw a user name 'crazyforkinsler' on another site and it popped in my head.

Congratulations! Ian Kinsler is the correct answer for #6 with 48 career leadoff home runs. That is the last answer needed to complete the question.

Good call. I knew I’d be kicking myself in the ass as soon as somebody came up with it. I was thinking of guys like Michael Young and Brian Roberts, but of course they didn’t hit enough Home Runs.
