20. Pete Rose (1963-1986)
If you looked at pure numbers, Pete Rose’s stats will certainly blow you away. Rose holds the MLB’s all-time mark for hits and is the only player from the post 1961 expansion to accumulate more than 4000 knocks. No matter what the other stats say, it takes some talent to be able to rack up 4256 hits in any era of Major League Baseball.

19. Miguel Cabrera (2003-Present)
Cabrera broke an important record in 2012, becoming the first player since 1967 to win the Triple Crown, the lead in batting average, home runs and RBIs for a single season. You might think that reaching such a feat would only lead to decline, but Cabrera remained consistent during his career. He net four batting titles and a career on-base percentage of .395. His career batting average of .3165 is also the top mark among all active players.
