Randy Jones
Mark Davis
John Montefusco
Cesar Cedeno (good career but four or five years into it he was being labeled the next Willie Mays and he ended up playing about 20 years and has never sniffed the Hall of Fame)
Bobby Bonds(another member of the "next Willie Mays" club)
Bobby Murcer (member of the "next Mickey Mantle" club)
Tony Oliva
Steve Busby (the pre-Tommy John era has a list of pitchers who could be on this list longer than a line at the DMV)

Tony Oliva had a couple of bad knee injuries, but had a couple of batting titles before he had to give it up.
