I would post another one right now but I just named every player I know

Try this one. Played in 8 world series with 2 different teams. led the league in putouts at his position in 2 different seasons. Never worse than 4th in range factor at his position. appeared in 10 all star games including 2 double
years. Played the majority of his career with one team. His nickname was that of an animal. Also he had moderate power.

 

[Cedrique]

I'm thinking Roger Maris but that one year that he hit 61 HRs takes him out of the "moderate" power category
