Ian Kinsler played second base for 14 seasons in the Majors from 2006 through 2019. A four time all-star and two time Gold Glove award winner, he collected 1,999 hits in his career.

Chris Davis was a feared power hitter in the 2010's, bashing 295 home runs in his career. His best season was 2013, when he batted .286 and led the Majors with 53 homers and 138 RBI's, and hit 47 homers in 2015.
