Answer: Andrelton Simmons

Andrelton Simmons began his MLB career in 2012 with the Atlanta Braves at the age of 22. He was an average to below average hitter but one of the best defensive players the game has ever seen. 

For his entire career, Simmons hit .263 with 70 home runs and 444 runs batted in. Two things Simmons took pride in was striking out very little and vacuuming up any baseball that was hit his way.

Although Andrelton Simmons actually spent more time with the Los Angeles Angels than any other team, he will most likely be remembered most for his dazzling plays in Atlanta.
