Mediocre Major League Baseball Players -- Andy Etchebarren
Perhaps best known for his unibrow, Andy Etchebarren, primarily playing for the 1960s and 1970s Baltimore Orioles, was your classic good-field-no-hit catcher. He only hit 235 for his career -- making him an overall mediocre ball player -- but had a tremendous presence behind the plate. He caught great pitchers like Jim Palmer, Dave McNally, Mike Cuellar and Pat Dobson, with his stellar defense earning a trip to the 1966 and 1967 all-star games (he played in neither game). Although that unibrow is often a center of conversation, I choose to take the high road and remember Andy Etchebarren as the type of defensive catcher you'd want on your team.
