I don't see this one getting much attention. Burkett led the league in hitting 3 times and batted over .400 twice but in an era where how much can you trust the stats.

Johnson had a pretty remarkable career, considering he didn't play in the majors until he was 27. Batted .296/.393/.506 with a 139 OPS+ and 57.2 WAR.
