Let's talk some of your favorite role players of the 90s. No studs allowed.

Like my man Charlie Hayes, the pride of Hattiesburg, MS. Changed teams 10 times in his 14 year career, had a little pop, led the MLB in doubles in '93 with 45. World Series champion in '96 with the Yanks.

Does the closer for those '96 Yankees count? Mr. John Wetteland, the 1996 WS MVP.

John Valentin...SS Boston Red Sox for a long time.

Highlights:
10th person in MLB to record an unassisted triple play against the Mariners in 1994 by catching a line drive, touching 2nd, then tagging a runner.

Hit for the cycle in 1996

Silver Slugger Award winner in 1995

Mickey Morandini - I know he was a one-time all-star, but I always liked him leading off for the Cubs in Ken Griffey, Jr.'s Slugfest 1998.

Was a HUGE Seattle Mariners fan growing up...loved Ken Griffey Jr. I remember the year the Mariners saved baseball in Seattle, beat the Yankees in the first round of the playoffs, etc.

Huge Jay Buhner fan as well.






I was a catcher in highschool and one year in college....always like Dan Wilson's game, especially the way he worked with the pitchers.

Jeff Reboulet. Hit a HR off Randy Johnson in Game 4 of the 1997 ALDS to help the Orioles beat the Mariners. Also had an awesome stache.

Not 90s, but we should never waste an opportunity to post this former MLB player's baseball card.

frick Charlie Hayes for catching the last out of the '96 World Series.

How about Luis Polonia?



Contact hitter, lots of speed but still somehow a shitty baserunner. Couldn't play a lick of defense.
