Johnny Evers- The second part of the famous double play trio was drafted 2nd overall by the Cubs in 1901. He played his entire career in Chicago until his retirement at age 35 in 1917.

Crab's numbers look like this-

7852 AB, 2084 H, .265 BA, .688 OPS, 1078 R, 264 doubles, 89 triples, 14 HR, 759 RBI, 395 SB, 88.1 WAR (33rd)

While Johnny's overall numbers aren't that impressive, the fact he is 33rd all-time in WAR shows he was a very good player. He had a stretch of 5 years from 1908-1912 where he hit over .300 twice and had OBP of no less than .395, including a league leading .414 in 1909 and a career high .448 in 1912. Before and after those years, he did not have great numbers. In that 5 year stretch, he actually led the league in WAR 3 times, with a high of 10.3. 1912 was his age 30 season and his career really dropped off after that. He hit .326 with that .448 OBP in 1912 and 3 years later he was hitting .228.

Evers won 2 World Series with the Cubs. He was a 3-time Gold Glove winner, 6-time Silver Slugger and 6-time All-Star. He won one MVP award as well. Despite a pretty impressive list of accomplishments, the numbers just weren't there, however. He did last 10 years on the HOF ballot, but only reached 32% in his 2nd year.
