I also have a soft spot for Don Baylor, who had a very interesting career to me. Would anybody have guessed/remembered that the big guy had 52 Stolen Bases the one season he played for the A's, just before he signed with the Angels.
He was also part of the trade that sent Reggie Jackson to the Orioles for one season, before Free Agency kicked in for both of them.
Of course he also won an MVP and had a magnet installed in his left bicep, that seemed to attract an alarming number of baseballs into committing suicide by Baylor, once it left a pitchers hands.
I'll conveniently forget his atrocious defensive analytics, when he wasn't DH'ing.
