Joe hustled his way into the bigs after 6 or 7 years in the minors. He batted .251 career but backed up every position except catcher and pitcher. He rarely made an error. He epitomized hard work and determination. Broke my heart when the Mets did not re-sign him.

I also like how Cory Hart plays the game. He would be my active selection.

He only played 3 games in the NHL (Tampa) but spend a lifetime playing in the minors and fighting to get out the largest shadow cast in hockey. His brothers, Wayne.

Football – Rich Karlis (Kicker Denver Broncos) Met him at a mall when I was 10. He was a very nice person.
Hockey – Nikolai Khabibulin. I started collecting him because I thought his first name was Khabby and his last name was Bulin.

I was enthralled by his gaudy numbers coming up from the minor leagues, but he never did make it to the big time. Remember the rage after the 1988 Donruss, Topps, Fleer, and Score cards. His numbers were all mediocre at best.
