My Take
Dee Strange-Gordon is the kind of player who made you sit up straight the second he stepped in the batter's box. Forget the power hitters — Dee was pure speed and contact, the guy who could leg out an infield single before the fielder even had time to think. Winning the 2015 NL batting title with the Marlins felt like a genuine feel-good story, and doing it in a season full of grief after Jose Fernandez's death gave him a whole extra layer of meaning in that city. He bounced around the Dodgers, Marlins, Mariners, and Nationals, but at his peak he was genuinely appointment television — watching him steal second and swipe third in the same sequence never got old. Not a Hall of Famer, sure, but the kind of scrappy, joyful player who reminds you why baseball is great when it's not just about launch angles.
